What told you that? The median American is significantly less wealthy than the median Brit, despite similar homeowning rates and Americans having way more income. Most of Europe (plus the Anglo offshoots) have higher social mobility.

To what degree is that because of inherited wealth?

I’m not sure median wealth is a better indicator of social mobility than income.
