Summary

  • More than 440,000 Americans became millionaires last year, lifting the U.S. total by roughly 1,200 new millionaires a day.
  • The surge underscores how strongly wealth creation remained concentrated in the United States, which continues to mint high-net-worth individuals faster than most other markets.
  • The milestone adds to evidence that asset gains and business ownership kept expanding household wealth at the top end even as many Americans still faced affordability pressures.
