I can find alot of information of people with a net worth of 1-5 million $

Those are executives/management, legal professionals, medical professionals, financial professionals, engineers and coders. They are at the top of their specialty, work hard and invest smart.


But there is virtually NO information about the most common business activity of UHNWI aka net worth north of 30 million $

Obviously all of them derive their net worth from scalable business models

Smith, Yagan, Zidar, and Zwick find that the 1 percent’s income is being driven by owner-managers, mostly of small and medium-sized companies—specifically S corporations, partnerships, and limited liability companies. These are talented managers: the researchers find that profits of companies run by these 1 percent-ers are far higher than those of businesses owned by people in the top 5-–10 percent. In the researchers’ sample, when these businesses’ owners died prematurely, while still running their companies, profits plunged by more than half.

The average company in the top 1 percent of income has $7 million in sales and 57 employees, according to the research. “If that firm has, say, a 10 percent profit margin to split between two owners, it’s enough to put someone in the top 1 percent category,” says Zwick. The businesses earning the most profits in the bulk of the top 1 percent were physicians’ and dentists’ offices, professional and technical services, specialty trade contractors, and legal services.


In the top 0.1 percent, physicians’ offices ranked only sixth in profits—behind managements of private companies, financial and investment activities, auto dealers, professional and technical services, and oil and gas extraction.


“finance and insurance is by far the most highly represented industry among the highest earners,” find Guvenen and Kaplan, who looked at the 0.1 percent. In the rest of the 1 percent, health care is the most represented sector.

Technology, from the internet to media such as ESPN and Bloomberg terminals, has given elite athletes, entertainers, entrepreneurs, and financiers the ability to profit on a much larger, global scale, making the fruits of their labor more valuable than what previous superstars, such as, say, Pelé or Babe Ruth, brought in. Ruth’s peak salary of $80,000 would be worth about $1.1 million in 2016 dollars, around one-thirtieth of the $33 million the highest-paid Major League Baseball player, pitcher Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers, made in salary alone in 2016.



Although they constitute only 0.003% of the world's population (less than 1 in 33,000), they hold 13% of the world's total wealth.[3] By 2017, there were 226,450 individuals designated as UHNWI, representing an increase of 3.5%, with their combined total wealth increasing to $27 trillion


Honestly it would be extremely interesting to find out what kind of businesses those UHNWI own. The number is extremely high.

I dunno any info either. I assume the 30+ million catagory, is filled with all type of business owners.

this was imo a good study on millionaires in USA. But again, most of the pople in that study probably in th 1-5 million range of net worth

I personally aim for 1-5 million net worth because it is way way more realistic and more low risk than the UHNWI business man route

Becoming a top specialist in medicine, law, management, finance, engineering is literally enough

Meanwhile to become a UHNWI a lot of luck is required in addition to IQ and discipline

Working as a Venture Capital Fund Manager is probably Ideal though. Highly compensated yet you're still " in the right circle"

it takes plenty years. But with living below means, and investing the leftover moey well. it's do-able to than be millioniare by the time you are late 40's or early 50's.

"the people in the study became millionaires by consistently saving over time. In fact, they worked, saved and invested for an average of 28 years before hitting the million-dollar mark, and most of them reached that milestone at age 49."

Health/Biotech Venture Capital would be the ideal profession for me. It combines a secure plan B with a high-reward low risk scalable plan A profession.

Is it possible to break into Biotech Venture Capital with a Doctorate in medicine/pharmacy from a good, but not ivy, University?

become an expert at investing into biotech companies. the clinical trials can make or break the company. If you can predict the most likely outcome before the results are out, you can make quite some money. The pharma bro strategy jfl.

ngl I have no idea what the fuck 'biotech venture capitalist' is, but those universities are pretty much unknown in the states. You would be limited to working in europe, where you will very much be treated as a second class citizen next to oxbridge grads

bro ngl, you focus on the wrong things. you should focus on being as good as possible in your tests / exams before worrying about the uni. In the end, the Uni doesn´t matter too much in medicine and especially not in Europe.
VC firms care more about other stuff than the uni you went to jfl.

You are giving him shit advice. If he is in the EU he should be going to Oxbridge for phd, not those unheard of unis.

Naw, I´m really not. Obviously, if he was free to choose, Oxbridge would be one of the best choices. But for him it seems like the agony of choice isn´t his main problem but rather getting in.
He should focus on being as good as possible to have a wide variety of realistic options and then focus on choosing the best uni out of those options.
If he excels in Uni he can still go to an elite uni for a phd if he wants to. The whole "elite uni" status isn´t nearly as important in Europe as in the US anyways.

Then why are all your politicians mostly Oxbridge educated with a smattering of LSE? Seriously just google the UK parliament and see how many oxbridge you get.

I would say its more important, not less.

Now take a look outside of the UK. What do you have there? Maybe that one uni in France?

People in leading positions tend to have visited the good unis in their country (and maybe a foreign semester in one of the well known "elite unis" if they're especially ambitious - not a requirement at all though).
I wouldn't categorize any of them as elite.

If your country has elite unis, you are absolutely expected to attend them if you want to be in a position of power. If you grew up in Nigeria and want to become Nigerian president then no, you do not need an oxbridge degree. If you want to be UK minister, then not going to Oxbridge will severely hamper your chances, since that option exists, and not taking it indicates a lack of aptitude.

Most of the time, national leaders will attend either the best university in their country or one of the top ones. This doesn't disprove my point but rather confirms it, which is to go to the most prestigious uni you can
