and as much as the bottom 42% of the population.

A meaningless stat. I'm very far from rich (at least by American standards, compared to the world average my income looks much nicer), and I gave a larger financial net worth as 25% of the American population.

That's because 25% of Americans have zero or negative net assets. It doesn't have to be poor people, a doctor still paying off med school could easily be in that 25%, as could anyone who bought a house at the market peak and is now underwater, even if they have a high income and can easily make the mortgage payment.
