Some people have more money because they get to keep more of what they earn. Like if you and your friend both save up $10, but you get to keep $8, while your friend only keeps $2, that’s how wealth inequality works. It can happen because of jobs, luck, or even the rules people make.
Examples
- A person who works at a big company might get more money every year than someone who works at a small store.
- If one family gets help from their rich relatives, they can afford a better house and car.
- Rich people often pay less in taxes on the money they make from investments.
