Assets: Am I already rich or not? This calculator provides the answer
Despite inflation, recent data shows that wealth in Germany has grown. The Handelsblatt calculator shows you where you stand in comparison to the German population.
In Berlin, a question arises: how rich are individuals, and what criteria define wealth? While some may set a monetary threshold, such as €500,000, a million euros, or more, others ponder what percentage of the population is considered wealthy. Economists, sociologists, investors, and financial advisors engage in debates about who qualifies as wealthy.
The truth is that wealth is a matter of personal definition. Current data from the Deutsche Bundesbank reveals the overall wealth of Germans. To provide a personalized perspective, the Handelsblatt has developed a calculator that allows individuals to determine their wealth based on their own definition. This calculator compares one's current liquid wealth to the portion of the population that is deemed wealthy.
