Mark Bou Mansour â The “millionaire exodus” visualised
Can you solve it?đ§
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”? đ¤
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.

Love how this puts things in perspectiveâ0.2% is hardly an âexodus.â Itâs a great reminder of how headlines can distort reality when the actual numbers tell a very different story. The visual really drives the point home.
