You say:

>.5% of wealth also means non-liquid assets such as house

But they said:

>Total U.S. household net worth (excluding real estate)

The rest of your comment, to be honest, just sounds like you fundamentally don't like poor people and have some strong biases against them.

You are free to give them 2.5% of your money, see how it works out.

Reality supports my case.

You may find it unfathomable to do so, but I already donate quite a bit more than 2.5% of my salary, as well as hours of my time every week, helping people less fortunate than myself.

Whatever "reality" you're referring to isn't the same one I'm living in.

Good for you. Doesn't change the reality that most of them don't know how to handle money.

It is a bit funny that you said "see how it works out", I told you I already do it, so you go with a dismissive "Good for you"

Anyways, I doubt anything I can say will ever convince you otherwise, you sound very entrenched in your beliefs.
