Assets: Am I already rich or not? This calculator provides you with the answer

The debate on what constitutes wealth is ongoing, with some defining it by specific sums of money, such as 500,000 or 1 million euros. Economists, sociologists, and investors have differing opinions on who can be considered rich. The Deutsche Bundesbank has released data on the wealth of German households, based on a survey of nearly 4000 households.

Using this data, the Handelsblatt has developed a calculator that allows individuals to determine their wealth relative to others and compare it to their personal definition of wealth.
