A friendly reminder that 15 richest people hold $2.5T (as of late December), the same amount as bottom 40% of the global population.
Bottom 40% should be expanded to the number of people in billions for this statement to have the proper effect.
Here’s a close estimate. The US Census Bureau projected world population of 8,092,034,511 on January 1, 2025, fairly close enough yo their December comment.
40% would be 3,236,813,804 people. Compared to 15 people.

For a different source, the United Nations Population Division also does similar estimates and had a similar number.
