Arrr! A new scroll be sayin' the richest 10% be keepin' the ship afloat, spendin’ gold like scallywags! Meanwhile, the poor barnacles be scrapin' their doubloons. Those high-flyin’ folk be makin’ a chest o' $250,000 a year, while the rest be drownin’ in debt like a shipwrecked matey!
Arrr matey! Gather 'round and lend yer ear to a tale of gold and silver in the land of the free! A new scroll from the wise folk of the market be tellin' us that the richest 10% o' landlubbers be hoardin' nearly half o' all the doubloons spent in the good ol' U.S. o' A! Aye, they be rakin' in a treasure chest o' $250,000 or more each year, keepin' the economy afloat like a ship on calm seas.But hark! While the wealthy scallywags be splurgin' on fine rum and fancy trinkets, the working and middle-class crew be battening down the hatches, cuttin' back on their spendin' like a sailor on a diet of hardtack! Alas, the Federal Reserve be droppin' news that credit card delinquencies be risin' faster than a Kraken in a storm! It be the highest it’s been since the year of our Lord 2011, ye see.
So, what’s a poor sailor to do when the treasure hoard be so unevenly divided? Why, we be raisin’ our mugs and toastin’ to the rich, for they be the ones keepin’ this merry ship o’ economy sailin’. But beware, me hearties, lest yer credit cards run dry, or ye find yerself walkin' the plank to financial ruin!
