I doubt it’s acurate. I find it hard to believe only 1% of the rest of the population are millionaires.

Yeah, or maybe just old, currency devaluated, isn’t now just having your own house is like half to entire step to being a millionaire?

That could be a big factor.

Statista suggests 22.7million people, or 9% are millionaires: https://www.statista.com/topics/3467/millionaires-in-the-united-states/#topicOverview

I wonder how this accounts for family wealth, as well.
