It's also useful to know that some very large percentage of Americans, when asked, honestly think they will themselves make it to at least the top 10%.

I would also be curious to know what the dollar amounts are at each breaking point.

No matter how much data you present them, they still think that they're in the top 10% or even the top 1% because they're a small business owner somewhere.

have them watch the film again and again until there is a "PING!", if they want to understand, they will, if they want to keep denying, I guess they will. I believe most will see the light, especially with the heat on their asses.
