Vermögen: Bin ich schon reich oder nicht? Dieser Rechner liefert Ihnen die Antwort

Reich oder nicht – this is the question on many people's minds when it comes to wealth. Some define riches by specific monetary amounts, such as 500,000 euros, one million euros or more. Others ponder which percentages of the population can be considered wealthy. Economists, sociologists, investors and private bankers often disagree on the answer, as wealth is ultimately a matter of individual definition.

The latest figures from the German Bundesbank reveal the overall level of affluence among Germans. To help individuals determine their own financial standing, the Handelsblatt has developed a calculator that allows users to assess their personal wealth against the segment of the population they consider wealthy. The calculator provides a concrete comparison: where does your current available wealth stand in relation to the percentage of the population you deem affluent?
