The 1% is something like $500k per year. So we are talking greater than 99% of people.
People don’t realize how obscenely wealthy some are.

The minimum net worth of the top 1% is roughly $11.1 million. A person would need to earn an average of $823,763 per year in order to join the top 1%.

How is this fair? Some quick googling says Kim is worth around 1.8 billion, and Kanye was worth about 2 billion before he ruined his own sponsorships.
You’re telling me child support doesn’t have a cap, and is proportional to how much money you make, but fines for breaking the fucking law aren’t?

We'll see how that works out with news that the IRS has frozen his accounts due to nonpayment of some $50M dollars in taxes.
However, the source of the news is questionable: It came from Kanye himself.

From an article:
"He said he was "obviously not the most financially literate person on the planet" and added that he went to the "different CFOs" involved in his businesses to find out if not paying taxes would be tax evasion.
"So now I'm having — I get to actually learn how to run a company. I get to learn how to, you know, to count, really," Ye said of his finances, adding, "It's like I didn't even know where to put the money."
Just now he is starting to learn how to run a business? It's a little late for that Ye.
It was only like 6 years ago that he was having financial problems, he made a boatload of money with Adidas and some others, and yet here he is again.

Tax law is actually the only place where pleading ignorance is a valid defense. It won't get you out of paying the money, but it will usually get you out of jail time if they believe you. In this case, I very much doubt that the IRS is going to go for "I didn't know not paying taxes is tax evasion" though

Nah, it doesn’t
I don’t condone anything this dude does, but, even with all of the sponsors he lost, he still will always have at least $60m locked up in smart investments
In his own words, he’s constantly passed off among handlers. He can afford the most brilliant finance minds in the world, and at the very least if he makes 4% on the $60m he can pay off the support without having to lift a finger and he won’t have to take a hit to his lifestyle
CDs, T-Bills, other fixed income, I-Bonds, or even a portfolio of top quality “safe” stocks will provide this type of yield
He owes the IRS $50m, so he absolutely has at least 60 to rack up that kind of tax bill
