An extract from the ABC
The original report is worth a read.
A study has found that only 5 per cent of Australian millionaires regard themselves as prosperous.
The Australia Institute has surveyed 12,000 people to determine their attitudes towards income and wealth.
It found that for those with household net worth of more than $3 million, only one-in-five regards themselves as prosperous, while 7 per cent say they are poor or "just getting along".
In households with incomes of $100,000, only 5 per cent described themselves as prosperous.
The original report is worth a read.
Remarkably, the proportion who indicate they are totally satisfied with life overall declines as income increases, but is more or less unaffected by differences in wealth.
