A million dollars is not what it used to be.
Only 36% of American millionaires consider themselves wealthy in 2025, according to new research from Northwestern Mutual.
The finding comes from the 2025 Planning & Progress Study, updated in early November. It draws on a Harris Poll survey of 4,626 Americans, including 969 people with household investable assets greater than $1 million.
Even the wealthiest Americans worry about money, the study found. They fret about having enough of it, deciding how to spend it and whether to pass it on to heirs.

They fucked our healthcare system, so my philosophy is if something bad happens you just don’t pay them if they perform the procedure, and if they don’t you just kill yourself. 300k in healthcare bills, send them $10 a month until you pass away. (If you are paying anything, they legally can’t send them to collections)
