The wealthiest people in America aren't who you think they are. Together, they have more net worth than the Forbes 400 by a factor of ten — and almost no one has heard of them. Motley Fool analyst Rachel Warren talks with Eric Zwick, professor of economics at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and co-author of The Everywhere Millionaire, about the decade of research that rewrote what he thought he knew about wealth, inequality, and the American economy. 
They get into who actually makes up the top one percent, what these Main Street millionaires can teach public market investors about capital allocation and competition, and the economic indicators worth watching right now if you want to track the health of the businesses that actually power most of the country.&nbsp;
