    You’d have a lot fewer engineers, scientists, doctors, and lawyers. Pretty much anyone with half-decent money management and enough income to not live paycheck to paycheck in the western world makes the global 1% in their lifetime. That’s only about a mil in total assets.

    Median american (so probably not the four careers I listed) will earn ~2mil in their lifetime.
