Millionaires in Singapore to grow from 183,000 to 408,000 by 2016

 

The number of millionaires in Singapore are expected to more than double by 2016, from the current 183,000 to 408,000.

 

Singaporeans are also the second richest in the Asia Pacific region, and the fifth richest in the world, with an average wealth of US$285,000 (S$359,600). This is a 32.1 per cent increase from the figure of US$215,000 in Jan 2010, less than two years ago.

 

This is according to Credit Suisse's latest global wealth report, that takes into account the individuals' assets after subtracting debt.

 

The report also states that most of the increase was due to the saving rate and asset price increases, rather than exchange rate movements.

Don say millionaire as a family...... Do you even have the reported $359,600 in individual bank account or not?

Meaning for a couple combined will have $719,200 in liquidity assets, don't count the properties!!!

If you got kids then each one also must have $359,600 in their bank hor.

 

Got or not?

If not then you are NOT the average Singaporean!!!

 

I feel very very sad that I m not the average Singaporean in terms of wealth!!

the crux of this is in the definition. this is based on the total asset - debt including the house you stay in. People make it due to the high appreciation of the house.
