It could be said that the true fortune of the rich is that their wealth continues to grow. Regardless of the global economic downturn, international trade wars and geopolitical tensions, according to the IMF, in 2019 the world’s billionaires became 9% richer and even in the midst of the #COVID recession, the trend seems steady. This piece by Eugenio Merino @eugeniomerinoestudio entitled “1%”, materializes this paradox so current, where billionaires representing 1% of the world’s population, own more than half of the world’s wealth and have a growing economic power that differs from the reality of most.
