Millionaires Control more of the World's Wealth

From the WSJ, we discover that the wealth of millionaires in the world increased 29% which was two times greater than the world as a whole.  The article also points out that Millionaires Control 39% of Global Wealth which is something that we keep seeing over and over is how so much wealth is controlled by so few individuals.  Below is a chart that appears in the article detailing the wealth pyramid and the number of people associated with each slice.

Despite all of the protests I would assume that most people would just like to end up on this pyramid somewhere.
