As much as I agree with the idea behind this meme, a quick google search place the world wealth at 10 trillion and the top 8 richest at 1trillion, so 10% and not 50%.
this was the case according to Oxfam in 2017, I'm not aware of any dramatic wealth redistribution since https://www.oxfam.ca/news/just-8-men-own-same-wealth-as-half-the-world-says-new-oxfam-report/
