Where my socialists at?
Correlation isn’t causation.
Unfortunately, there’s definitely a lifestyle difference between those two sets of people. You don’t get into the bottom 1% of people by working a minimum wage job. In fact, you probably don’t even get into the 1% by not working at all but accepting social programs. Such a person likely makes specific choices that will specifically put them there, and often those same choices will cause them to have the same problems under any economic system.
It’s actually sort of shocking that the difference is only 14 years.

Yes, especially considering how deadly poverty is. And poverty isn’t even the lowest 1%. In fact in the US poverty is the majority. It must mean there’s confounding factors on the other side. Maybe the top 1% are genetically inferior. Makes sense, they are all narcissistic sociopaths so they are technically defective.
You got to be very careful. 1% is high, but not that high. You’re going to be finding lots of doctors and engineers and other people who do good important work and get paid because they do good important work. It’s a little bit higher than that that you start to see the real sociopaths. Members of Congress or Tech multi-billionaires.
I’d like to point out that some of the factors aren’t choices.
