Earth is an unequal place.

地球是一個不平等的地方。

It always has been, and maybe it always will be. But, few people are truly aware about the extent of Earth's true inequality.

它一直都是這樣，也許永遠都會是這樣。但是，很少有人真正意識到地球真正不平等的程度。

This video is an exploration into the real world and the real reality.

這段視頻是對現實世界和真實情況的探索。

Let's begin with the global population of humans currently in 2019: approximately 7.7 billion people.

先說說2019年目前全球人類的人口：約77億人。

There also exists approximately 317 trillion U.S dollars

還存在約317萬億美金

in global wealth across the world. In a perfectly equal world, if all of this wealth was evenly

在全球範圍內的財富。在一個完全平等的世界裡，如果所有這些財富都是平均分配的

distributed to all 7.7 billion of us, would mean that everybody regardless of age

分給我們77億人，就意味著每個人，無論年齡大小

would have $41,169 to their names.

他們名下將有41169美元。

But we don't live in a perfectly equal world. So to understand the reality of the situation more,

但我們並不是生活在一個完全平等的世界裡。所以要多瞭解現實的情況。

let's shrink all of those 7.7 billion people down to only one hundred people to better represent

讓我們把這77億人全部縮減到100人，以更好地代表。

everybody and place them all in a single-file line in order of how much money they have.

每個人都排成一排，按他們的錢數排列。

The first staggering thing to notice here is that the first seventy people in this line all have net worth below $10,000.

這裡首先要注意到的是，這一行的前七十人的淨資產都在一萬元以下，令人咋舌。

In order to break into the top fifty percent of people in the world,

為了打入世界前五成的人。

you only need to have $4,120. The first seventy people in this line are essentially all

你只需要有4120元。這條線上的前七十人基本上都是

inside of the global lower-class and they only control three percent of the world's wealth between them.

在全球下層階級裡面，他們之間只控制了全球3%的財富。

Most of these seventy people are located in places like India, where the average adult net worth is only $7,000, or in Africa,

這七十人中的大多數人都在印度等地，那裡的成人平均淨資產只有7000美元，或者在非洲。

where the average adult net worth is only $4,000. The next twenty-one people in the line represent to the global middle class,

其中成人平均淨資產只有4000美元。接下來的21人代表了全球中產階級。

with net worth averaging between $10,000 and $100,000.

淨資產平均在1萬元至10萬元之間。

Even still though these 21 people are underrepresented,

儘管這21人的比例仍然偏低。

because they control only about 12% of the global wealth pool. In order to break into the global top 10%,

因為他們只控制了全球財富池的12%左右。為了打入全球前10%的行列。

you need to acquire a net worth of $93,170.

你需要獲得93170美元的淨資產。

So moving on, the next eight people in the line are the first people who could probably be considered to be very well off.

那麼繼續往下看，接下來的八個人是第一批大概可以算得上是非常富裕的人。

These eight have net worth ranging between

這八人的淨資產在

$100,000 and $800,000, and would be considered the global upper-middle class.

10萬元和80萬元，將被視為全球中上階層。

Most of these eight people are found in places like Europe, where the mean average adult has a net worth of

這八個人中的大部分都在歐洲等地，平均每個成年人的淨資產為

$145,000, or thirty-six times higher than an average

145,000美元，比平均水平高三十六倍。

African adult, or in North America where the mean average adult has a net worth of $404,000.

非洲成年人，或在北美，平均成年人的淨資產為404,000美元。

This means that average Americans,

這意味著，普通美國人。

Canadians, and Europeans are well inside of the global top 10%.

加拿大人，和歐洲人都在全球前10%的範圍內。

Together, these eight people control 38% of the entire world's wealth,

這八個人共同控制了整個世界38%的財富。

but even they don't have anywhere near as much money as this guy does - the richest person in the group of

但即使是他們也沒有這傢伙的錢多，他是這群人中最富有的人。

100. He represents the top 1% of the global population, and he controls a mind-boggling

100.他代表了全球1%的頂級人口，他控制著令人瞠目結舌的。

47% of the entire world's wealth, or nearly half.

佔整個世界財富的47%，接近一半。

In order to break into the global 1%, you need to have a net worth of at least $770,000.

要想打入全球1%的行列，你需要擁有至少77萬美元的淨資產。

No average person in any country on earth is inside of the top 1% Club.

世界上任何一個國家的普通人都不在1%的頂級俱樂部裡面。

Inside of the top 1% are approximately 42 million U.S dollar millionaires, who are located across the world, representing

在前1%的人裡面，大約有4200萬美金的百萬富翁，他們分佈在世界各地，代表著

0.6% of the global population.

佔全球人口的0.6%。

But even further up than that, at the very top echelons of the 1%, are the billionaire class. As of

但比這更上一層樓，在1%的最高層，是億萬富翁階層。截至

2018, there are 2,208 billionaires across the world, with a combined wealth of 9.1 trillion U.S dollars.

2018年，全球有2208位億萬富翁，財富總和達到9.1萬億美元。

If the wealth of billionaires was measured as a yearly GDP, they would have the third largest

economy in the world, ahead of Japan and Germany combined. And the wealth of the billionaire class

has been steadily increasing over time. Just two years ago in 2017,

the billionaire class was worth "only" $7.67 trillion dollars, and just as recently as 2000,

億萬富翁階層的價值 "只有 "7.67萬億美元，而就在2000年。

the billionaire class wasn't even worth one trillion dollars. At the very, very top of the billionaire class are 10

億萬富翁階層甚至不值一萬億美元。在億萬富翁階層的最頂層，有10個

individual people: the 10 wealthiest people in the world.

than the bottom 50% of the human population, or 3.85 billion people.

超過人類人口的底層50%，即38.5億人。

What's also interesting though is the way that extreme wealth and people tend to congregate in the same few parts of the world.

不過也很有意思的是，極端的財富和人往往聚集在世界的同幾個地方。

An ultra-high net worth individual is a person who has a minimum net worth of $30 million, and most of them

超高淨值人士是指淨資產最低達到3000萬的人，他們大多

(70%, to be exact) live in just these 10 cities across the world:

In 2017, the net worth of every single household in the United States added together to 94.7 trillion US dollars.

2017年，美國每一個家庭的淨資產加在一起達到94.7萬億美元。

If we took this and divided it equally to all

如果我們把這些錢平均分配給所有人

124 million households inside of the country, that would be

內的1.24億戶，這將是。

$760,000 per American family.

每個美國家庭760,000美元。

The reality is obviously much different, though. The bottom 50% of American families average only an

不過，現實情況顯然大不相同。底層50%的美國家庭平均收入只有

$11,000 net worth, while the wealthiest 400 Americans have more money than all of them or

1.1萬美元的淨資產，而最富有的400名美國人的錢比他們所有人或

163 million Americans combined. in order to break into the top 1% of Americans,

But if you want to see what the worst country in the world for economic equality is like, you needn't look any further than

但如果你想知道世界上經濟平等最差的國家是什麼樣子的，你不需要再去看了

South Africa, labeled by the World Bank as the most unequal country on earth.

Here, the bottom 60% of the country controls only 7% of the nation's wealth,
