Yeah and you'd crash the entire middle class's retirement accounts.
The site also says 33% earn more than $100K. I guess the majority of the leftover 11% is owned by the people in the 10%-33% bracket.

If anybody finds a reliable recent source for this wealth data, please share. I'm not seeing anything particularly trustworthy with a quick search.
Hopefully the Fed is trustworthy enough...
90% to 99% own 35.8% of all assets, and, the remaining 1% own 29.2%. So the top 10% own 65% of all assets.
however, to answer your question, i would guess the majority of US based HN readers are in that 100k+ bracket. the audience here skews very high income i would guess.
