What percent are you?

According to Free Money Free Finance,  "Money Magazine's December issue listed shares of income in the US by quintile. Here's how they broke up:

• Bottom Earners: Income up to $16,358; 4% of all U.S. income


• Second Quintile: Income $16,359 to $32,188; 8% of all U.S. income


• Third Quintile: Income $32,189 to $57,212; 13% of all U.S. income


• Fourth Quintile: Income $57,213 to $97,298; 20% of all U.S. income


• Top Earners: Income above $97,298; 55% of all U.S. income

And here are the income figures for the top 10% in increments of 1%:

• 90th percentile: $154,131
• 91st percentile: $160,864
• 92nd percentile: $168,227
• 93rd percentile: $177,123
• 94th percentile: $187,412
• 95th percentile: $200,026
• 96th percentile: $235,687
• 97th percentile: $290,860
• 98th percentile: $360,435
• 99th percentile: $506,553
• 99.5th percentile: $815,868
• 99.9th percentile: $2,070,574"

To figure out where your income fits, go to Wall Street Journal's What Percent Are You? calculator.  I doubt that I'll ever hit that 99th percentile, but I'm pleasantly surprised by my income in comparison to my fellow citizens.  Why do I still feel poor, though?
