What percentage makes over 150k, is over 6’3”, and can still break a 5 minute mile and 2:40 Marathon above the age of 40?
The answer = Dis Guy

When I broke 4 I was at the time the tallest sub 4 miler ever at 6’5”. So I am tall.
Our household paid 172k in income taxes last year so income well above 100k. Put me in that group.
I did do an incredibly piss poor bracket this year even having my Hogs lose to Kansas. So I suck at that.
On a serious side the average CEO of a fortune 500 company is over 6 feet. And Fletch was 6’1” ( 6’5” with the afro) so you cant deny those facts.
But Joe Falcon was 5’6” and he beat all expectations.

Satan I’m sure your posts are a veritable fount of wit and bon vivance.
Meanwhile, I can hold 6 bagels without using my fingers or toes.

I feel like it’s more than you think, I am the runt of my family at 6’2” and $100,000 is not as much as it used to be. I own a small industrial supply company and 5/8 employees all earn over that, two of them over 6’. I know my experience is a nano sample size but I still have a hard time believing the low numbers like 4% being thrown around on here.

If we treated these two conditions as independent, only 3.39% of American men would meet the two criteria. In reality height and income have some correlation, so the value is higher. However, recently telework has probably lowered that correlation factor.
Lastly, since you are probably wondering about heterosexual dating, only 49.5% of the US population is male.
I'd ballpark it at 1 in 25 American men is 6 feet tall and makes 6 figures. Of course some of them are in cities like SF and NY where a 100k income is probably considered scraping by.
Where is the correlation between height and income when it comes to short billionaires and poor Sudanese?

Less than 20% I’ll warrant. Not enough to go around to all the ladies.
Looks like you are correct.
This says only 16% are >6ft ()And says 18% of people are making 6 figures ()Unsure of the joint probability but bounded at 16% max
If 18% of people make >$100k, then despite all of the income inequality hubbub, a not insignificant percentage of this 18% is female.
Full disclosure, I am 5'11" and have made over $100k for over 20 years (as has my wife -- who is 5'2").
