EAs seem to have more “impact inequality” than the population in general. For example, among charitable donations in general, about 20% (IIRC) come from the extremely wealthy, but among EAs it’s more like 70%. Or to put it another way, about 1 in 500,000 Americans are involved in EA, but 1 in 200 of the Forbes 400 are involved in EA. So you might expect EA to move closer to the population distribution as it grows.
