Wealth accumulation over time:
-Average 20-something is worth a mere $127,730.
-Average 50-something American has a net worth of $1.4 million.
-Average 60-something is worth $1.6 million.
Wealth inequality exists, but the premise of increasing wealth accumulation as we age is accurate.
-Average 20-something is worth a mere $127,730.
