    Althrough I find MBTI terrible, determination and statistics shouldn't be looked at the same thing.

    If people were actually somehow have higher probability of being wealthier because of their personality type, this could be due to society not selecting some types vs other types, and it would be meaningful if one wished to prevent long term structural inequality.

    Now trying to use personality types to explain widening wealth gaps is inane, because that particularly problem is extremely simple. It's widened because middle/lower class incomes have stagnated while productivity has gone up, with all profits going to the rich. The distribution of productivity has simply been grossly unequal since 1970's.
