How Much You Need To Rank in the Top 10% of Manhattan’s Wealthiest Elite
How Much You Need To Rank in the Top 10% of Manhattan’s Wealthiest Elite
Bob Haegele Mon, November 15, 2021,
Lavish apartments, fancy cars and dressed to the nines: Manhattan’s wealthiest elite seem to have it all. And yet, while the city’s mega-rich or ultra-high net worth individuals are worth billions, you don’t need all that to be in the city’s top 10%. New York has $3 trillion in total wealth. But in a city of nearly 9 million people that is home to almost one million millionaires, having $1 million already puts you close to the top 10%.
To add to that, dollars and cents aren’t everything. Yes, in purely monetary terms, hitting certain income or net worth thresholds is the only requirement to be in the top 10%. But without your health and a network of support, you won’t be able to enjoy your swimming pool of gold coins.
Let’s take a look at what exactly you need to be among Manhattan’s wealthiest elite, both in terms of money and otherwise.
Income
Of course, most Americans immediately think about money when contemplating wealth. Whether or not you agree that is the only determinant of wealth, it is certainly a big component. And given that New York is where some of the world’s wealthiest call home, it’s no surprise that you need a lot of money to be one of the city’s wealthiest.
After all, New York is home to a number of billionaires, including Michael Bloomberg, Julia Koch and Stephen Schwarzman. While you don’t have to be among the billionaires to be in the top 10%, you still have to be quite well off.
The income in the top 10% in the state of New York is $291,906. However, New York City is considerably wealthier, with the top 20% earning an average of $295,662. Meanwhile, the top 5% earn $585,902. Thus, the top 10% earn somewhere in between the two, with the average being around $440,000.
Health
Having a lot of wealth is nice, but you can’t enjoy it without your health. Of course, there is a correlation between health and wealth; studies have shown that wealthier people tend to live longer and with lower rates of chronic disease.
Still, being wealthy doesn’t guarantee good health. But one survey of New York City residents asked them what makes a person wealthy, and the response was in many cases that being in good health makes a person wealthy more than anything.

Bill Holter: Fiat to Fail, US$180,000 Gold Will Look "Laughably Low"
Investing news: 9-21-2026
Bill Holter of BillHolter.com believes gold's next leg higher has already begun, and its ultimate catalyst is the financial markets themselves. "I think price wise, we're early, Time wise, I don't think there's a lot of time left before we see the implosion of fiats.
The inverse of that is an explosion of prices of everything down to a stick of gum or a cup of coffee," he said. Holter also explains how a gold price of US$180,000 per ounce could be "laughably low" in the long term.

Silver, on the other hand, has also experienced sizable price swings as investors have responded to shifting expectations for inflation, interest rates and the economy.

Sometimes This Time Really Is Different
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) September 21, 2026
Some time in the middle of the second century AD, on the shores of the extremely picturesque Lake Iznik in modern-day Turkey at the site of the ancient city of Nicaea, a boy named Cassius Dio was born into a locally prominent family. His father was a Roman politician, his mother was Greek, and young Cassius Dio grew up in a bilingual household speaking Greek and Latin at a time when the Roman Empire was at its absolute peak.
