4I figured this out a while ago but didn't realize it was 1:1
that's not 1:1
you know what I'm saying though. But the more I look at it, the more it annoys me for trying to trick me with absolute numbers instead of e.g. % of wealth owned
No. Not only is it literally not 1:1, it's completely bunk because you arbitrarily picked the scales of the two series (wealth vs M2). Divide the scale of M2 by ~3.5 and it'll line up with wealth of the bottom 50% "1:1" instead. Also, M2 is a shitty definition of "the money supply" before online banking.
