Number of new millionaires up 14%

Post by Apoptosis »

Report says number of new millionaires jumped 14% in 2003 as the U.S. emerged from recession!!
NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - The millionaires are back.

After taking a bruising in the past few years amid the stock market swoon, one in 125 people in the United States could call themselves a millionaire in 2003, up 14 percent from a year earlier, according to the Wall Street Journal, citing a report conducted by Merrill Lynch and Capgemini.

That's about 0.8 percent of the U.S. population.

The United States and Canada added more millionaires last year than Europe, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East combined, according to the report.
Well I'll be the first to admit that I'm not one of those people in the .8% of the population club. Who knows many years down the road!
