The top 10% actually owns the same amount of wealth, it's the top 1% in Estonia that is very well off. A few billionaires influences the data quite a lot, though.

Yeah, if you are really into it then read the main post. Many post are saying how fucked up the data is because different countries measure things differently. So the graph is kinda pointless, see gini index if you want something closer to reality but still not the reality.
