I don’t get it. In what way does being in the top 1% of earners not make you rich, because there’s a younger person at work who has been gifted an entire property? Lol.
You can skip around the issue all you want, but it’s pretty hard to spin being a top 1% earner into not being rich. It’s not that deep. If there’s a scale that goes from 0-100 and you’re on 99, it takes some serious gymnastics to not see how you fit into the pecking order.
Also I feel it’s worth pointing out that this ain’t a dig in any way, but just a nudge towards people being a bit more realistic about their relative situation.
