Bruh, if you had invested your school lunch money instead of literally eating it and thus draining it down the toilet, you would have been a millionaire by now. Subscribe for more of my finance tips for just $20 a month.

Don't worry, it'll trickle down.... Annny day now.

Well of course they do. That's the whole point of the legal scam of investing. If it benefits regular people it wouldn't exist.

This is an important thing to note when someone claims that you should be eager about stock market performance because of your [comparative handful of] shares in your retirement account. Accounts such as the 401k were probably devised to tie up regular people's money into the stock market, injecting more money into it and making it seem more important (and thus worth bailing out).

And you thought Monopoly was just a game!

Billionaires shouldn't exist.

The "Eat the rich" crowd continues to do absolutely nothing.

No no you guys all don’t understand that this is a good thing because… (let me check my notes…) ….uh…hm…derrr…communism.

Seems weird to make this assertion, and fail to provide what the total holdings cutoff is to be in the top 10%.

Historical data would be great. How was that figure in each previous decade? Isn't it true that at the peaks this tends to happen, and when we get a stock market downturn, the rich get poor faster then anyone else?

My wife and I constantly lament how we were born a few decades too late. For everything

One thing the article doesn’t make super clear to me is if that figure includes investment funds and whatnot, and to what degree. It sounds like it might but elaborated very little beyond a vague statistic.

Cause and effect

No shit. If someone does not have money they don't need then they can not buy stocks or any investment.

Is this really a new thing? Haven't the rich always been the stock-holders?

Gasoline is relatively cheap.

Just saying...

I don't think it's good to have such wealth inequality, but I do this general investment into the stock market should be encouraged.

401ks are so much better than pensions as a retirement vehicle. Better return on investment and more financial separation from the company I work for. I never worry about someone raiding the pension fund or a company going bankrupt, and I've received much better return on investments than the numbers you hear from pension funds! That's not even considering 401k matching......

Tax stock over 100,000 shares 1% per current price, per stock, per quarter.
