Prompt
What was the 85th percentile networths of each of the following classes in 1801 [nothing special about the year, just asking about the general era of [1750-1850] uk? Look at the history and provide me what you can glean based on that, I have 0 interest in converting those values into the current value of money, just go back and look what the historical records or *any source* that you find helpful and useful. I mean to say do not try to reverse engineer from current wealth data, just look at the raw reality of that era based on everything that you know and understand. By definition, networth includes everything. For example: home equity, value of pensions/rights/other-perks(if any)[even if every citizen is eligible for them], among the other/usual things etc etc etc. Try to make sense out of everything that you know-and-understand, then try to reach a point-estimate.
