Very recently I came across an article about "homoploutia".
Sounds like a brand new word, hasn't even been anglicised (yet), and
remains unknown in other languages, in wiki anyway (apart from Finnish,
I see now:). That seems also very possible, given the kind of people it
describes...
How "new" would it be?

it's an English word, according to
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/homoploutia
(economics) The situation in which the same people are wealthy in the
space of capital and labor income

Branko Milanovic @BrankoMilan
Homoploutia is a neologism I invented (after some consultation w/my Greek friends).

It indicates that the same people (homo) are wealthy (ploutia) is [in] the space of capital & labor; your neighborly CEO who is in the top 1% by labor income and also in the top 1% by shares he owns.
