Top 1%

Shockingly just 26 people control 50% of entire world's wealth.(Now rumoured to be 14) A lesson which I learnt is that poverty is a disease. We should not have a middle-class mindset. Top 1% of the world controls 99% wealth. Do you think that is an accident? It is no accident, it is designed this way. They understand something, they understand the way world works. They focus on systems and people.  That is why they are the movers and shakers the world has.  The number of billionaires owning as much wealth as half the world’s population fell from 43 in 2017  to 26 in 2018 .

Tragedy arrives in a blur, often accompanied by hopelessness, feigned calm and a fog-like numbness that feels like a surreal dream. The last thing we may need when in moments of tremendous trial is empty reassurances that everything will be ok. Often, it most certainly will not be ok.
