Here's what I found asking AI:
US Household Wealth Distribution (Q1 2026, Fed DFA)
Group | Share of US Total Net Worth
------------|-------------------------
Top 0.1% | 14.4%
Top 1% | 31.6%
Top 10% | 67.9%
|
Bottom 90% | 32.1%
Bottom 50% | 2.5%
So, the top 10% holds roughly as much wealth as the bottom 90% combined.The top 1% alone holds more than the entire bottom 90% minus the upper-middle segment.
To be in the top 10% you would need roughly 1,8 Million $ in assets (that's probably 90% of HN useerbase)
Basically, the bottom 50% are a slave class that doesn't even participate in the economy.
LE: The richest 20% are the only ones powering the U.S. economy, per Moody's Zandi. K-shaped economy all the way.
