I was asking myself, how much money do you need to have, to be in the top 1%?

So for context, according to this article, you are in the top 1% worldwide, if your net worth is above ~872’000.-, that is 19 million US Americans.

With 94’000.- you are in the top 10%

That’s only like a half million each…

But a B-List actor told me it would trickle down half a century ago, so let’s give them the benefit of the doubt and maybe we’ll catch a dribble

And he was right. You get a trickle down. He didn’t mention the industrial strength wealth pump going up with the business end stuck in your wallet.

I think the idea of cryptocurrency is funny, since it’s just “I’m not playing your make believe money anymore, so we’ll pay our own make believe money since you are obviously rigging the system”. Kinda makes sense if adoption keeps up and the planet isn’t on fire

Thing is, the poor aren’t running bitcoin miner farms. Crypto doesn’t change anything but traceability of the funds, letting the rich get even richer.

Yeah riding the bubble let a couple of nerds and early investors maybe take advantage of a little economic mobility, like, incidentally. But those days are long passed now. Like you said, it’s rigged in favour of entrenched capital, just like everything else now.

Bet they would taste delicious in a stew.

It would have a very rich flavor.

See, people keep saying to “eat the rich.” I say “beat the rich.” Not only is it more satisfying, you can do it repeatedly. You can only eat them once.

snekerpimp ,

You can eat them after you beat them. The tenderization helps.

Trebuchets are easily constructed from readily available materials. They require no permits to own or operate, and are capable of flinging the fattest of fat cats well over 100 yards.
