“We have a two-tier economy. We have an economy of well-to-do people from which I have benefited because I’m in the financial sector. My asset value has gone up, I benefit from rising asset prices because I own shares and I’m on the board of companies that own shares, fund management companies and so forth, but I’m not happy about the fact that the typical household and the working class worldwide is not doing well. And what will eventually happen and has begun to happen when you have rising wealth inequality, eventually you have politicians that will not assume personal responsibility for the rising wealth inequality that is largely fostered by monetary policies by central banks.”
