That's why the average is a poor indicator of distribution. It always has to be mean. Sort them all up and point at the middle guy

I feel this number is absolutely correct from the recent weddings that I've seen. And this is just an average and approximate number. People spend all their savings for various reasons, and with higher tax rates, the only winner is the government (and the politicians scamming that money eventually 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️).
