Being a millionaire is kind of middle class now
Forget top hats and monocles, millionaires look positively middle class now. Why it matters: The number of "everyday" millionaires — those with wealth between $1 million and $5 million — is soaring. But many of these folks don't necessarily feel rich. By the numbers: There were nearly 52 million "everyday" millionaires in the world last year, per a recent report from UBS. That's four times the number in 2000. Even accounting for inflation, the number of everyday millionaires in 2024 was 2.5 times what it was in 2000. The wealth manager does not break down how many of these folks live in the U.S. But America has, by far, more millionaires than any other country in the world. New American millionaires were minted at a rate of about 1,000 a day last year. There are nearly 24 million millionaires in the U.S., 40% of the global total, and about four times the number than runner-up China. "Millionaires are no longer Monopoly caricatures," says Paul Donovan, chief economist at UBS Global Wealth Management. "It's shifted to encompass a very large portion of the population." State of play: Driving this growth in the U.S. are home prices, which have skyrocketed in recent years, and the rapidly aging population, he says. More and more Boomers are sitting free and clear on homes that have seen their values rise. The share of Americans who own their homes mortgage-free sits at a record high of 40%, and over half of these folks have reached retirement age. This is also a population that has hugely benefited from federal tax policies, like the mortgage interest deduction, and the ability to put money into 401(k)s tax free. Between the lines: Boomers are the first generation to rely on private savings for retirement, mostly through 401(k)s. These plans don't generate steady and predictable income like a pension would. A pension doesn't show in your wealth tally the way a 401(k) does. So even though 401(k)s might make you technically wealthy, they do leave many feeling perpetually insecure, Axios has reported. Reality check: No matter how these folks feel, they are doing very well. 36.8 million Americans lived in poverty in 2023, according to census data. Worldwide, a staggering 3.5 billion people are considered poor. Zoom out: Many people have accumulated their seven-figure wealth without quite realizing it. After Axios put out a call on social media and on a podcast, a few folks said they only just learned they were worth more than $1 million. Zoom in: Some of these folks said they are just getting by. They're house poor, living in pricey homes with little left over after paying the mortgage. "We don't take expensive vacations ever. I drive a 2016 Honda Odyssey with 175,000 miles on it," says Alisha Ard, a stay-at-home mom of four who lives in Ventura County, California, where the median home costs now costs more than $800,000. Ard and her husband have a $1 million mortgage on a $2 million house. "I know we're technically 'millionaires' with our home equity but it isn't really helpful for monthly expenses," she says. Feel rich? Most said no:"My mind was blown when I discovered that I am in fact one of these people," says Glen Czaplewski, who lives with his wife and four-year-old in a townhouse in Denver and works in the insurance industry. He says they keep to a budget and "live a nice life." It's still nothing extraordinary. "It's honestly hard to describe how incredibly pedestrian and normal our lives are," he says. "Somehow we have managed to build a net worth that puts us into the top 5-8%," one self-identified Boomer from Utah tells Axios in an email, asking for anonymity to discuss his personal finances. He says he and his wife, who are both teachers, have a net worth of about $4 million. Does he feel rich? No. Selling the house would be a "wash," he points out, as they would have to pay for some kind of shelter, likely at a high price. Careful long-term investments and frugality landed them here, along with living in a town that's seen real estate prices shoot up. "We do feel secure," he concedes.

Tesla Stock Jumps: Here's What Daniel Ives Expects as Robotaxi Rollout Begins
Well, finally it happened. No, there's not peace in the Middle East (unfortunately), but Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) did kick off its long-awaited robotaxi launch in Austin, Texas, on Sunday. Still, how much these self-driving cars truly represent an autonomous driving experience is up for debate. That didn't stop TSLA stock from jumping 8% in Monday's trading session. Confident Investing Starts Here: Crucially, the service isn't available to the general public and doesn't operate entirely without oversight, despite Elon Musk's earlier claims. Each vehicle has a Tesla employee sitting in the front passenger seat as a safety monitor, ready to shut things down if needed. The rides are also confined to a specific, well-mapped part of the city. In some situations, Tesla adds an extra layer of caution by deploying chase cars and remote drivers for support, although some vehicles have been seen operating without them. With that disclosure out of the way, Wedbush analyst Daniel Ives is ready with the plaudits. 'Going into it, we expected to be impressed but walking away from it, all there is to say is that this is the future,'Ives excitedly said. The analyst took two rides, each lasting around fifteen minutes, through Austin and reported that the overall experience was comfortable, safe, and user-oriented. The rides were notably smooth, with no indication that the vehicle was operating without a driver – at no point did the car behave unpredictably or irrationally. Inside the vehicle, there are two touchscreen panels: one positioned in the front and another in the back row above the air conditioning vent. The rear panel connects with the user's Tesla account and syncs with the Robotaxi app, automatically pulling up the user's media content across various apps. During one of the trips, the car navigated a park route that included dirt roads and traffic cones without issue, ultimately arriving at the exact pickup location with precision. So, Ives had a good time, and going by his outlook for the service, investors are about to enjoy themselves as well, as this is the starting point for a '$1 trillion autonomous journey.' 'Overall,' the analyst summed up, 'these Robotaxis exceeded our expectations and offered a seamless and personalized travel experience that has lit the spark for autonomous driving.' Bottom line, Ives rates TSLA shares an Outperform (i.e., Buy), along with a Street-high $500 price target, implying the shares will gain 55% in the months ahead. (To watch Ives' track record, click here) That's a bull's take, and while 13 other analysts join Ives in that camp, there are also 12 Hold ratings and 9 Sells, bringing the analyst consensus to a Hold (i.e., Neutral). Based on the $287 average price target, shares are expected to be trading at an ~18% discount a year from now.
