Money Can't Buy Happiness...But $100 Million Might!

Most of the world thinks $10 million dollars would make their lives easy peasy. However, in true American fashion, US citizens need more more more. 🤑 But with super-villain personalities like big daddy Bezos on our radar, who can blame us? We can smell Elon's musk all the way from our Space-X rocket! 🚀

A recent international poll discovered that, while most people on this lovely planet would be happy with $10 million or less, Americans said they'd need at least $100 million. 

 

Here’s Five Fast Facts on how much money is enough:

  1. 📋 Roll Call - Researchers polled 8,000 people in 33 countries across 6 continents. A majority of people (86%) said they could live their best life with $10 million or less.
  2. 💰 American Greed - On the flip side, the majority of Americans polled said they would need at least $100 million or more to live THEIR best life. And 31.7% preferred to have at least $100 billion.
  3. 🏘️ Modesty Matters - Over 50% of people responding in Argentina, India and Russia said they would like $1 million or less to fund their dream life.
  4. 💸 A Oui Bit of Wealth - According to a recent French study, a person must have a revenue of at least $3,903 per month to be considered "rich".
  5. 👠 #BossBabe - Most of the people polled who wanted more or unlimited amounts of wealth tended to be younger, city-dwellers who put power, success and independence at the top of their to-do lists.

🔥Bottom line: $10 million is a lot of cash for the average person, even the average American. Would any of the people polled know what to do with that kind of dough, let alone $100 million? The jury's still out. But hey, if anyone turns the money printer back on, let us know.
