I don't dispute the content of the report, but the report doesn't have the misleading title we were talking about; in fact, the first line says "For the first time in nine editions of the report..." My only complaint is that the title at FT makes it sound like it's always this way.
- lapcat 3y agoI dispute that the title is misleading. People seem to expect too much from an article title. You can't get all of the nuance in just a few words. The subtitle is "A survey of the global elite shows the ‘great transfer’ between generations has overtaken entrepreneurship", and the first sentence of the article is "New members of the global super-rich gained more of their assets through inheritance than through wealth creation this year — the first time that this has been recorded by Swiss bank UBS in its nine years of surveying global billionaires." Nobody is getting misled.
