A multimillionaire - who is this?

Today many beginning entrepreneurs are inspired by the works of Grant Cardon, a sales expert and a multi-million dollar state owner. One of his articles - "How to become a multimillionaire" - by some individuals is completely read out to the holes. And who is a multimillionaire? We'll figure it out.

Let's define

According to the definition of explanatory dictionaries, the multimillionaire is the owner of multimillion-dollar capital. If to speak in simple language, then this can be called a person whose state is in the gap between a billion and a million. That is, it is no longer a millionaire, but so far not a billionaire.

Pseudo-rich

In truth, this definition can easily be criticized. If you believe Ozhegova, the multimillionaire is every Muscovite who possesses real estate. After all, the condition of those who own at least one apartment in Moscow - a considerable amount of money.

If this is considered to be everyone who owns cash in the amount of more than one million monetary units, then practically any able-bodied citizen of Belarus is a possessor of wealth.

And what about Russia in the mid-90's? At that time, the Russian ruble depreciated so much that, according to Ozhegov, half of the country's families could be called multimillionaires.

A few million ... what?

According to the accepted opinion in society, a huge fortune must mean wealth. A multimillionaire is a person whose fortune is estimated at several million currency units of hard currency, for example US dollars or euro. Also the state can be stored in Swiss francs or pounds sterling.

It is known that the assets of wealthy people - this is not always money. A multimillionaire is a person who has property in the form of metal accounts, securities, real estate and other assets, which in monetary terms are estimated at several million dollars or other monetary units of hard currency.

Statistics data

According to estimates of experts, more than a third of multimillionaires in the world live in the US. Of these, 4/5 reached their fortune on their own, the rest were inherited from a rich relative. Also, some reached wealth at one point, winning in a lottery, show or sports match.

Russia in terms of multimillionaires is ahead of most developed countries, second only to the US and Germany. Here so!
