    Where are all the millionaires?

    No.1
    Singapore
    Population: 4.7 million
    Percentage of Millionaire Households: 11.4%

    Who would think the tiny Republic of Singapore would be crammed with so many millionaires? The country, all of just 247 square miles, has emerged from the recession and has rebounded in a big way. Its GDP, exports and manufacturing are all rising, and so, too, are home prices. That has led Singapore to boast the highest concentration of millionaires anywhere on the planet. However, I do not think the living of standard is high there. The value for money is not there.

        Wow, are these mostly people who have lived there their whole life and became a millionaire or people that have became millionaires elsewhere and moved there for the cheap living?

            United States: "By the end of 2009, the economy grew at its fastest pace in more than six years, even though many businesses put the brakes on hiring."

            Israel: "Unlike other markets, the story in Israel wasn't about rising real estate values or credit, but about gains in technology, which some say will help lead the country to continued economic growth."

              I call bullshit on this one - 2-3 years ago Norway was No1 when it comes to millionaires per capita and now is nowhere to be found? I don't think so...

                  From the Wikileaks cables:

                  In an August 17 meeting, Israeli Mossad Chief Meir
                  Dagan thanked Under Secretary Burns for America's support of
                  Israel as evidenced by the previous day's signing of an MOU
                  that provides Israel with USD 30 billion in security
                  assistance from 2008-2018.
                  So why exactly is the US giving so much money to Israel?

                      Singapore is not cheap and very much first world. Singapore and Hong Kong have so much money you can smell it.

                          Nothing cheap at all about Singapore. Very expensive to live there.

                              It is but the low company and personal tax rates still make it attractive for those with high incomes to live in Singapore. Also a really nice clean and safe city

                                    you know how much a mediocre BMW costs in Singapore ?

                                    about $220k for a very average 5 series (530i, not even fully loaded)

                                    fuck, for that much i could drive a Ferrari here

                                                      Yes, when people say its cheap over there it just shows their ignorance. And because of that ignorance the usually are not millionaires

                                                                            about $220k for a very average 5 series (530i, not even fully loaded)

                                                                            fuck, for that much i could drive a Ferrari here

                                                                            does it make sense to pay such a huge premium for economic prosperity, warm weather, safety, stability?!?!
