This is some interesting data I came across today.I did some basic math with the figures.Apparently 0.167% of the world’s population are millionaires.About 0.013% of Indians are millionaires.1.4% of the world’s millionaires are in India. Do you know some or any of them?Who are they?What sort of people are they?How did they get to this position ? By any chance are you one of these people ? How did you make your first million?Or are you someone who would like to be a millionaire?
