Millionaires Say They're Better Off Than in 2007



The good old days for the wealthy are now back.

A survey from Northern Trust found that three quarters of millionaires surveyed said they are better off, or as well off, as they were in 2007.

Still, the millionaires are less optimistic about the broader country. Two thirds of millionaires believe the country is worse off than it was in 2007.



They blame the growing national debt and stubborn unemployment as the reasons.


Nearly a third blamed their negative outlook on the Obama administration.

When it comes to investment goals, more than a third of wealthy investors said growing wealth was their goal.

About one quarter focus on generating income and the rest say capital preservation is their goal.

Don't be upset that Obama didn't get it done in his first four years. He's very smart and you'll be living on easy street come January of 2017. You and the rich will most likely be eating the same brand of caviar.

I am a Nillionaire and many more are joining me everyday.

A Nillionaire is those with very little or nothing.

Sounds more like a personal problem for you.

I don't have a lot of money, but instead of pissing off people the last five years I have been building up my knowledge and my connections and 2012 was the best financial year I've had in almost a decade.

In fact, continue doing nothing productive with your life, that just means more opportunities for me!

Those millionaires worried about 'stubborn unemployment' could, you know, use some of their millions to create jobs and hire people...
