New York City now has 349,500 millionaires, more than any city in the world

Over the last decade, the number of millionaires in NYC has risen by a massive 48%. At the same time, in The Bay Area, the number of people with a seven-figure net worth has risen 82% to 305,700, the second-highest worldwide. This surge has been driven by a massive rally in financial markets and real estate prices. Meanwhile, 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, according to the latest Payroll-org survey. The rich are getting richer at the fastest pace ever. Source: The Kobeissi Letter, Bloomberg
