Yes, so that link is the same one I gave you, and confirms you have your average and your median the wrong way around.

> Most people retire on far less than 500k even and are doing just fine

Soooo .... walking back all those claims about everyday folks being able to become millionaires just by showing up to work?

Didn't know walking back on basic math was a thing but here we are.

Please stop wasting eveyones time if you're gonna ignore a primary source after you asked for it.

The primary source which

  - I introduced to the thread first
  - You quoted incorrectly
  - Doesn’t contradict the other sources given
  - Doesn’t support your arguments
You think I’m ignoring that primary source? That would be quite a feat given I linked it first.

Please do explain further, preferably with reference to the comments above that show the figures you quoted aren’t a good match to illuminating the claims you made.

How does that source support the notion that median-and-lower people can realistically save $25k per annum, per person, or trivially become millionaires with a bit of discipline?
