I find the number of millionaires statistic pretty suspect. Other sources online peg the number of U.S. millionaires as 5-6 million. 22 million means 1 in 15 people are millionaires. I'm sorry but that is ridiculous. 147.92.97.220 (talk) 17:52, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

== Unreliable/inconsistent figures ==far put

Some of these statistics seem to be inconsistent, eg the "number" for "Northern America" equals the corresponding figure for the United States, and doesn't include Canada.---Speminallium (talk) 11:24, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The number of USA millionaires currently seems to be wildly inaccurate. 300 billion millionaires! The same error seems to have happened in the list of world regions. Sebcarroll (talk) 20:34, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Are these figures reliable?

The Belga news agency reports that 141 thousand people in belgium are millionaires, based on the 2022 edition of the World Wealth Report. Skellyret (talk) 16:52, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
