One percent is over 34 million people, it seems unlikely to think that many people were making over 5.8 million.
Our median household income is only $74,580.
Monaco, at 12.8 Million has only 341,238,363 people but their median household income is $186,080 in US dollars.

Sorry, but your math is wrong. You got the decimal point in the wrong place. One percent of 340 million is 3.4 million.

I have seen different net worth percentage numbers in various sites based on age group. Here is another one that seems high but who knows. This one is showing the 1% net worth of $22,102,660 between age 65-69.

Making an income of $5.8 million or amassing a Net Worth of $5.8 million?

Don't confuse income with wealth, as used by the OP.
With retirement vehicles in place for a long time, there are many people with more than $5.8 million. The article is behind a fire wall so I don't know if they included real estate and person residences in the tally.
