THE RICH

Who's Wealthy Now?   Today's Elite

According to an article by Laurie Freeman in Advertising Age, the new face of luxury is being redefined.   Who's wealthy now?  Today's elite: they're young, flush with cash and breaking the rules.    Consider the following:

  • About 30% of the world's 7 million millionaires live in North America, according to a study by Merrill Lynch & Co. & Gemini Consulting.  The total wealth held by these millionaires increased 18% to $25..5 trillion in 1999, driven by a strong global economy and stock market, says the "2000 World Wealth" report
  • Another class of  wealthy individuals, a group Merrill Lynch calls "ultrahigh net-worth individuals" defined as those with personal financial assets of more than $30 million (US), increased by 18% to 55,000 in 2000
  • About 40,000 Americans have $10 million or more in assets as of 1995.  Of that number 27,000 had a net worth of $10 million to $20 million, while 13,000 had a net worth of $20 million or more
  • The Internet  IPO spawned a boon of dotcom millionaires who have not a clue how to handle their  newfound wealth.  For this audience especially, a premium value is placed on recreation.   
  • What separates the old rich from the new is the newcomers have tremendous appetite for information".  They want to learn what it means to be truly wealthy and affluent
  • "Luxury today is not about the accumulation of goods (implicit understanding that these indviduals could purchase anything they wish but choose not to), its about pampering and self indulgence
  • Old money looks at the new money and thinks conspicuous consumption associated with the '80's coming back, but new money has a different set of consumption criteria  

We act as a clearing house for substantial investments around the world for today's tycoons and a new breed of wealth.    7 | 24 when tycoons have time.
