I'm not grasping the presentation of the data. If a specific median net worth is noted, it should correlate with a specific percentile...........and not a range as indicated in the above tables. Does $170K on the income graph correlate with the 90% point........or the 92% point..........or the 99% point?

Maybe the question is a moot point?
