    Unfortunately billionaire doesn’t really work either. Nobody’s becoming a billionaire in 3 months.

    There is no word that easily rolls off the tongue. We’re stuck with multi-millionaire.

    Regular millionaires are everywhere. They have a house that’s probably worth a half-mil, which is super common, and then combined retirement savings for two people of $250k each at age 50 and poof, there’s your millionaires.

    Being a millionaire is middle class. What’s worse is that it takes being a millionaire to be middle class.
