That's also a flawed statistic. You're measuring how many millionaires are teachers or doctors instead of how many doctors or teachers are millionaires.


Yeah. Admittedly, I am ignorant on the exact methodology of this book, but it seems like a truly interesting approach would be a longitudinal study of a large number of people.

You can't just take a snapshot of wealth data and start drawing conclusions. Too many other factors in play. Inherited wealth being only one of them.
