Singapore Ousting HK as Top Millionaire Hub By 2017
May 7, 2008 Life, Money, Singapore
It is from a report released by Barclay Wealth, available in ST (S’pore to have highest concentration of millionaires by 2017 - for registered users only) and Business Times (S’pore ousting HK as top millionaire hub - for registered users only). It is saying that:
Last year, Singapore trailed Hong Kong in highest wealth density, with 23.3 per cent of residents having wealth of more than US$1 million. But by 2017, Singapore is expected to see this figure grow to 40.7 per cent - some 436,000 households - in comparison to Hong Kong’s predicted 39.4 per cent.
40.7%, which means there are 2 millionaires households in every 5! That is a lot!
Will you be the 2 millionaires out of 5? Or the remaining 3?
For myself, maybe I am not even in Singapore anymore by then.
