Yes, amongst any group of people - in the world, continent, country, region, city, etc, there will be 2% who earn more than the others and these will be the top 2 percent of earners.
The top 2% spend ~ 65% while the top 20% spend ~ 80%. The spending habits of the top 2% have been dramatically reduced over the past 24 months by as much as 75%. You know what rolls down the hill. Our retail, commercial, and industrial entities have been hit very hard contributing to decreased income, increased layoffs.
The answer depends on where in the world and over what period. 250000 Japanese yen would be equivalent to 2330 USD. On a daily basis that would put you in the top 20% but certainly not on an annual basis.

The word percent is never properly repeated in a percentage, so this has no meaning. However, the correct answer is actually 293.8 (20% of 1469) which can be found by setting up a proportion with 100 and the whole number 1469 as the denominators in the fractions and a 20 above the 100 and an x on top of the 1469. Cross multiply and solve for the unknown.
