A rather interesting overview of many different types of wealth distributions across the world.
Of particular interest to me were 2:
the ridiculous wealth and tiny size of capital as evidence by the top-middle section showing the biggest corporations in the world and their estimated market value, AND
the division of US household income into 5 brackets, showing that the 'we are the 99%' rhetoric may be more than poor sloganeering, seems to have some basis in fact.
Anyway, it's an interesting read and a useful source, so enjoy!
