Assets: Am I already rich or not? This calculator provides you with the answer
Despite inflation, recent data shows that wealth in Germany has grown. The Handelsblatt calculator shows you where you stand compared to the German population.
Berlin. Some people define wealth based on sums of money – 500,000 euros, one million euros or even more. Others ask themselves what percentage of the population is considered rich. In short, economists and sociologists, investors and private individuals can have a lively debate about who is considered rich. After all, wealth is also a matter of individual definition.
How wealthy the Germans are overall is shown by current data from the Deutsche Bundesbank. For the survey "Private households and their finances", almost 4,000 households were interviewed – an attempt was also made to reach particularly wealthy households. On this basis, the Handelsblatt has developed a calculator that allows you to determine how rich you are – measured against your personal definition.
The calculator enables a concrete comparison: Where do you stand with your current available assets compared to the part of the population that you consider rich?
