But according to a new report from Edelman Financial Engines, most people with that kind of money still don’t feel wealthy. The study surveyed over XXXXX adults, including XXXXX high-net-worth individuals. Only about one-third of those with between $XXXXXXX and $X million said they felt wealthy. Even among Americans with over $XX million in investable assets, many still didn’t consider themselves rich. Why? Several reasons. Inflation and rising costs are eroding what used to be considered a comfortable nest egg. Housing, healthcare, and education expenses remain sky-high. Retirement anxiety is another factor. One in three Americans no longer expects to fully retire, and many cite inflation and politics as major concerns. There’s also “lifestyle creep”—when income rises, so do expenses. Nearly half of Americans still carry a credit card balance, and XX% owe more than $XXXXXX. People compare themselves to those with more, making their own financial wins feel smaller. Despite this, only XXX% of U.S. households actually have $X million or more in financial assets. So if you’re in that range—even if you don’t feel wealthy—you’re already ahead of nearly everyone.
