An email from my friend in MASS.

If you harbored any illusions that the current status quo was about anything but the rich getting richer, all those can be promptly swiped aside.

A new study by Deloitte confirms everyone's worst fear (and every millionaire's wettest dream).......the wealth amassed by millionaire households is set to increase by more than 100% over the next 9 years. From a total of $92 trillion held by the world's richest in 2011, by 2020 the world's millionaire households will possess $202 trillion, or roughly 4 times current global GDP.

Even though much of move up is attributed to the wealth surge in the developing world, the biggest beneficiary is, you guessed it, the United States where the millionaires (those with net wealth of at least $1 million), who currently account for $38.6 trillion of total wealth, will see their assets increased by 225% to $87.1 trillion!
