Wealth inequality will destroy America.
(lemmy.nz)
This cartoon from The Seattle Times illustrates how America's economic pizza is actually sliced per capita, highlighting the massive disparity between the Top 1%, the merely wealthy, the upper middle class, and the lower 50%.
What do you mean by 4 dollar-digits of liquidity? Like $1000? That feels a bit low unless you're in a country where the yearly income is 1-2K.
It's even lower than you'd think. The cutoff for basically never needing to work again in your life is around $1M so top 18% of the US. At that point as long as you're willing to live off 30-40K and invest in index funds statistically you'll only ever get wealthier. (at least historically for the last several decades)
