Recently, a wealth data report was released, and after reading it, I felt a bit shocked.

In the past, we often talked about the "80/20 rule"—20% of people hold 80% of the wealth. But reality is far more extreme than that.

According to the latest data: the total personal wealth in the country is 430 trillion yuan, but the distribution is extremely uneven.

Guess how many people are at the very top? Just 0.33% of the population—about 4.6 million people—hold 290 trillion yuan of wealth, with an average asset of 63 million yuan. In other words, among every 3,000 people, there is one such wealthy individual, who controls 67% of the total personal wealth in society.

In other words, the asset scale of that small group at the top of the pyramid is greater than the combined assets of the bottom 99%.

This set of data struck a chord with many people. Thinking about which layer you are in is not without reason.

actually the math here is almost too clean... 67% concentrated in 0.33%? that's basically a textbook distribution vulnerability waiting to happen

Damn, 67%? That's freaking outrageous, even an 80/20 split would be considered polite.

Wow, 0.33% to get 67%? The gap is really outrageous. We working folks are really being crushed to death.

Wow, 0.33%. Those people are really outrageous, averaging 63 million. I really didn't expect that.

It sounds similar to a study I saw before, and it feels like wealth concentration is getting more and more exaggerated year by year.

Wait, 4.6 million people control 67%? How distorted is that...

Feeling like I'm sinking further down among the bottom 99%.

Once this data comes out, how many people will start to feel anxious? I am too.
