How wealthy is the top 1% in America?

The top 1% in America has a combined worth of $35 trillion.

About 55% to 61% of their total wealth comes from investments in stocks and similar assets.

The bottom 50% of Americans are all about real estate. Their combined worth is only $7 trillion, which is significantly less compared to the $35 trillion held by the top 1%.

Here's the latest on treasury rates.

It's been fluctuating around 4.25% to 4.29%, but it's yet to break past those critical levels of 4.34% or 4.41%.

What's interesting is that our 10-year treasury is the highest in the world!

While it's attracting a ton of attention and money, there's a catch. As U.S. taxpayers, we're footing the bill for those hefty interest payments on our debt.

Is this the best way to manage the national debt? Listen and share your thoughts.
