Just think; there will only be 21,000,000 (21 million) bitcoins in total,
while the global population is roughly 7,000,000,000 (7 billion).
If bitcoin gets shared equally in one seventh of the total population  1,000,000,000(1 billion),
it means that each human will get 21,000,000 / 1,000,000,000 = 0.021 btc.
If you own one btc, you will have 1/0.021=47.61 times more than the average.
Please note that my estimation is conservative, as I used only one billion people adoption.

Even though you suggest that you are being conservative by only projecting a 1/7 adoption rate - however, your estimate remains too speculate and too pie in the sky if you cannot put it in some kind of timeline..

1 year, 10 years 20 years , 50 years, 100years...? 

Actually if the time line is 50 years to 100years, I am 99% positive that I will be dead by then.... and probably a lot of other persons participating in this thread will be dead also (or at least NOT in the best of shape to enjoy considerable wealth). 

In that regard, I believe a 1 Year to a less than 50 year projection would be more practical than describing NO timeline at all.

1) Self-Custody is a right.  There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

Bitcoin adoption will be much faster than 50 years. It will be more like 10-20 years.

OK>.. so is that what tsoPANos is saying regarding his prediction?  In about 15 years 1/7 of the world's population will adopt bitcoin in some kind of manner?

It can be a realistic prediction, probably in some years most of the people will know about bitcoins.

I think it is, but you should only invest what you can afford to lose.

Right.. You can either lose or get some in your investment but do not lose everything. Bitcoin has a great concept. Losing investment will make you hate it.

We are in the low part of the S curve, in few months things will start to go faster than ever.

When the ETF will be approved, 1 bitcoin will be valued more than 10,000$ in my opinion.

You do not think of the amount you invest, just make sure that the place you invest it in is a good place to start your investment.
