I was talking with my partner about wealth inequality in the US and found the first chart on Investopedia. I noticed the custom y-axis, so I plotted the same data with a linear axis to get a clearer picture. Cold take, of course, but this is what people mean when they say the top 10% owns everything. Please excuse the y-axis formatting, I did this on Google Sheets on my phone.
