Ah yes, more parasites.
Bad news. We need the strong working class, not more parasites.
Grabbing the pop-corn to read the Poland permahaters comments
Impressive, very nice, now let’s see workers’ conditions
Future looks grim…
this is a bad thing btw
That would be good news, only if they had to pay 60% income tax, or idk… maybe were prohibited to open “family charities”; or maybe if they paid their workers a living wage (fucking InPost) 👀
I’m sure that won’t coincide with a raising popularity of political parties that just so happen to want to make changes that will only make life better for the ultra wealthy
A really bad news :/ who cares about the riches we should be talking about the average life in the country
Perhaps this is simply related to very wealthy Ukrainians who moved their business from Ukraine to Poland…
One ultra wealth for me, please 🥺
Not a good thing whatsoever
The comments here are all very negative, perhaps because of the title, but the article is quite positive. It is not just more ultra-wealthy people but a general increase in wealth in Poland.
*”The number of people in Poland with assets exceeding 4 million zloty ($1.1 million) has doubled in the last decade, from around 50,000 to 100,000, reported the Rzeczpospolita daily last year. Those with assets of more than 400,000 zloty tripled over that period to reach over four million.”*
And a general trend of falling inequality.
*But according to the World Bank,* [*Poland’s Gini index*](https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SI.POV.GINI?locations=PL)*, a common measure of income inequality, actually fell from around 34.9 in 2003 to 28.5 in 2023, meaning that inequality declined. However, the trend ended in 2019, since when the figure has been stable.*
Some may see it as a win, but in reality, I would say it is much of a non-event. It doesn’t say too much about how well off the people are. After all, there are many wealthy Russians and Indians too.
Poland is just an offshore for wealthy individuals of other countries.
If any Pole manages to amaze a considerable amount after this is just coincidental. Still a proxy.
And I don’t see you doing anything against it
Progressive taxes or taxes on wealth when? We should be mimicing scandinavian and other european countries instead of russia and usa.
Inequality is rising or falling?
Title couldn’t be more clickbaity – Poland had big growth but amount of ultra wealthy people (so people who own more than $30mln) is still lower than in tiny Denmark and 1/7th of Germany.
It could suggest that Poland has a growth of middle class and some people went above threshold.
We are still a country that is catching up in wealth with other countries but this gives us chance to avoid their mistakes.
So the question is: how to grow middle class stronger, so even if you start with nothing, you can have 1mln PLN of net assets.
Nowadays if you own an apartment in big city, you can already be close to it, but goal should be for as many people to reach that level and higher.
1000 people who own 1mln in assets is worth more to economy than one guy owning 1bn.
Optimally, that 1mln can be also achieved in more dynamic way than just buying a property, it’s of course important to keep goal of owning a home but it’s more productive to have side businesses or other investments.
How to achieve that?
what a shame…
