Charles Schwab's annual Modern Wealth Survey released this week found Americans now believe it takes a $2.5 million net worth on average to be considered wealthy in 2024, up from $2.2 million for the past two years. 

 

Older generations actually think $2.5 million isn't enough to be considered rich, with baby boomers saying on average that the threshold for wealth should be $2.8 million. Gen Xers said the number is more like $2.7 million.

Respondents in certain cities and regions feel like $2.5 million is a low bar, too. 

In San Francisco, residents said a person needs $4.4 million to be considered wealthy, and in the Southern California region, folks as a whole set the number at $3.4 million in this year's survey. 

New Yorkers say it takes $2.9 million to be rich, while residents of Washington, D.C., Denver, and Seattle all said on average that being wealthy means a $2.8 million net worth.
