White - $185,000

Black - 40,100

Hispanic - 46,100

Other - 154,500

Median family wealth for those over 55

White - $315,000

Black - 53,800

I disagree with your numbers. Your data is skewed by the corporate elitists. The top 10% control 70% of the corporate equities and mutual funds and private businesses. A great deal of their income comes from there. About 98% of the top 10% are white and they skew the information of what is really going on.

Whites like myself that became an electrical engineer and then became a nurse earn a comfortable wage but are nowhere near $315,000. You putting 80% of the whites that don't earn big bucks in with Bezos, Blumberg, Ray Dalio, Bill Gates. Zuckerberg and the other stealing bastards of our race.

The 315,000 is not salary, but accumulated wealth for people over 55. I assume it includes home equity and retirement savings.
