Hey, I was wondering how many millionaires there are in the world and I started doing some calculations... the numbers are incredible. Basically, 60 million people with at least one million dollars. I mean, how many millionaires are there in the world? A lot. But what struck me the most is how wealth is concentrated in a few: 3,148 billionaires worldwide, and then you see that only 19 people have a fortune exceeding 100 billion. Basically, two fingers on one hand. And then there's Elon Musk with nearly 850 billion dollars in net worth. An unreal thing. As I scroll through this data, I always ask myself the same question: how many millionaires are there in the world, and how many of them have actually built something themselves, or have only inherited? Because in the end, when you think about how many millionaires there are in the world, the real question is how they got there. I realize that most of us are still trying to build our first million, while others are already sailing in a wealth we can't even imagine. Strange to think about, right?
