Nick Perry explains why high incomes don't build wealth: the top 10% control 93% of business equity. The trap is chasing salary instead of ownership. He argues you should keep your job while buying cash-flowing businesses that compound over decades.
You're stuck in the wealth trap and it's not your income. This is crazy, but the average American household income is actually the highest it's ever been. And yet household wealth is lower than it should be. So where is the trap? Rich people don't optimize for the same thing as normal people. Most people chase the race, a promotion, a title. But the top 10% of the richest people within the US own 93% of all business equity. They simply own more than you do. Ownership is the difference. And that matters because the trap isn't your income, it's what you've been told to do with it. You were taught to optimize for earnings. You were not taught to take those earnings, keep your job, and buy businesses on the side that can run for decades. Own things, compound them.
