Medians are vulnerable to some interesting statistical paradoxes that means are not. For example, consider this scenario: * The median family owns $100k in real estate * The median family owns $100k in DOGE * The median family net worth is $100k * Nobody has any debt This is possible! Challenge: figure out how.

Family A owns $0k DOGE $100k real estate. Family B owns $101k DOGE $101k real estate. Family C owns $0k real estate $100k DOGE. Family A is the median for real estate, family C is median for DOGE. A/C are median for net worth
