minus-squareKairos@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 months agoThat’s not correct. The average wealth in this country is ~250k a person
minus-squareLifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 months agoYeah their number sounded really high, but fuck it hurt to see 250k as well. Do I count as 0 or a negative number if I have more debt than my possessions are worth?
minus-squareKairos@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoI think 0? I’m not sure. I think the number came from total wealth as an object, not total net worth.
minus-squareObjectivityIncarnate@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoThe average wealth could be $1,990,000 and they’d still be incorrect, lol (assuming the minimum value for “multimilion”, $2 million).
minus-squareHawk@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·2 months agoCould still be correct, average is heavily skewed by the millionaires/billionaires.
minus-squareKairos@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoNo. No way. A million a person would mean $325 ish TRILLION for just the US. I think that’s around half the global wealth?
minus-squaresocsa@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-22 months agoSo you’re saying we just need more economic imperialism?
That’s not correct.
