- wpietri 3y agoThose are very dodgy numbers. Created by one company from patchy and suspicious data, and then just SWAGging the numbers for most of the countries. No peer review. Source data and code both unavailable. And even they say their numbers are "based on the view that wealth inequality is likely to be highly correlated with income inequality", so I think the numbers I used are the better ones for this case.
