Yea but most people aren’t. Lower-income people barely have retirement accounts with index funds in it. The people that are “owners” in a meaningful sense are not workers.
- finspeech 4y agoYeah, but there are plenty of people who do own assets. It’s not just the 1% that owns all the assets. Plus, the market, and peoples’ places in it are not static. Many lower income people are lower income due to the fact that they are young and don’t have the knowledge/experience of their older peers. They don’t stay that way. They are able to earn more and save/invest more as they level up their skills
