What is the first thought that comes to mind when you consider being a millionaire? It could be the ability to purchase whatever you want, travel the world, engage in extensive philanthropy, or simply eliminate debt. Regardless of individual aspirations, let’s all celebrate National Be a Millionaire Day on May 20 by doing at least one act that makes us feel like a million dollars. Try a spa treatment, a test drive in an exotic vehicle or at the very least, a speciality cocktail or cup of coffee.
The background of National Be a Millionaire Day
Being a millionaire requires more than just money; you must also walk the walk. This is the lifestyle of a millionaire, darling! Nevertheless, the term’millionaire’ was coined in French in 1719 to describe observers of the Mississippi Bubble who amassed millions of French livres in the weeks preceding the bubble’s collapse.
In 1786, the concept of a millionaire first appeared in print when Thomas Jefferson wrote about the French, “The poorest labourer stood on equal ground with the wealthiest Millionary.” Over the subsequent years, the term’millionaire’ became synonymous with the affluent and those targeted by luxury brands. Interestingly, even though’millionaire’ is a label for the affluent, only 0.15 percent of the population falls into this category. Nonetheless, becoming a millionaire is becoming an increasingly attainable objective and losing its significance as a definition of exclusive wealth, particularly in Western societies.
Still, there are only about 46.8 million millionaires in the world at present, and becoming a millionaire remains a financial objective for many. This objective is not easily attained, and it retains a measure of mystique. However, with the 1999 debut of “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” anything is conceivable!
