Worldwide, Richest 3% Hold One-Fifth of Collective Income
"Across 131 countries worldwide, the richest 3% of residents hold 20% of the total collective household income -- as do the poorest 54%. In other words, the 3% reporting the highest household incomes share the same "slice" of collective income across countries that more than half of residents worldwide -- those on the lower end of the income scale -- must share."
