World inequality is initially difficult to grasp, but 🐻 with us. The image below seperates the world based on their wealth...

World inequality
Top-1-percent
Top-1-percent

The big person on the left shows that 68.7% of people on earth, that's nearly 6 billion of the 8 billion on earth[1] have less that $10,000. Let that sink in for a moment, the majority of the people on this planet live on less than 3% of its wealth. The next rung, people who have $10,000-$100,000 equate to 22.99% of the population. So around 7.5 billion people out of 8 billion earn less than $100,000.What's very revealing is that around 8% of the world's wealth belongs to the rest of the lucky 0.5 billion or 500 million people on earth.References
