Makes you wonder who should be getting age related discounts--looks like fixed income , won't float
47 times doesn't sound correct. Can you provide a link to the census report? This is the latest data I could find for household wealth on the Census website:

Age of Householder Net Worth
Less than 35 years $8,854
35 to 44 years 57,600
45 to 54 years 104,300
55 to 64 years 178,300
65 years and over 201,500
65 to 69 years 197,500
70 to 74 years 218,200
75 and over 193,600
