Mark Bou Mansour ■ The “millionaire exodus” visualised
Can you solve it?🧠
There are 58,000,000 millionaires in the world.
128,000 of them moved to another country in 2024, the news claimed based on a report published by Henley & Partners.
Is this a “millionaire exodus”? 🤔
The answer is no. The millionaires that supposedly relocated in 2024 represented just 0.2% of all millionaires.
But that didn’t stop news outlets around the world from reporting on a non-existent exodus, so we’ve visualised the problem below in case the helps clarify things further.
For more information, read our report debunking the millionaire exodus myth.
