wealth

A new report has meticulously examined American cities, using a comprehensive set of key metrics such as income, population, number of households, cost of living, and crime rates, among others.

When it comes to the wealthiest 100 cities in the United States, two of them are right here in Minnesota.

I always knew Illinois had a handful of wealthy suburban neighborhoods surrounding Chicago.

Wealth is very much a subjective thing. What one person might consider a pittance would feel like a fortune to someone else. How much do people think (key word) they need to live comfortably in Illinois? The numbers are ridiculous.

There's a brand new list of the wealthiest people in the world and Missouri has a new (sort of) number one richest person. This guy is so wealthy, he could afford to buy 3 billion candy bars and that's even allowing for inflation on chocolate.

Wealth can be a subjective term. What is rich to one person might seem like a pittance to someone else. Do you actually know what Missouri's poverty level is? Do you know that you might be poor (by state standards) and not even know it?

The old saying says the rich get richer and...well, the rest of us don't. That's true for one Illinois place which is suddenly home to the 4th most millionaires in America.

Wealth is a strange word. I've known people who were rich in life, but not with money. In this case, we're talking about pure hard cash though or at least net worth. I have learned that the wealthiest man in Wisconsin is 20 times richer than Taylor Swift or at least he's close.

I will admit that I'm not a math genius, but these are numbers that are just staggering to me. Did you know that the richest woman in Illinois is more than 8 times wealthier than even Julia Roberts and I have so many questions.

It pays to be famous - literally. But, even one of the most famous women on Earth isn't even close to just the richest woman in Missouri as she's still more than 6 times more wealthy than the pop star diva.
