    So you’ve cracked the top 1%.

    Well played, but if you want to join the real elite bracket, you’ll need to step things up considerably.

    To be wealthier than 99% of South Africans, according to Knight Frank’s 2021 Wealth Report, you’ll need a net wealth of around $180 000.

    Using the rate at the time the report was compiled, that converted to around R2,6 million.

    That falls well short of the definition of an ultra-high-net-worth individual (UHNWI), which is somebody with a net wealth of at least $30 million.

    Dig deeper, and look for the richest 0,1% of a country’s population, and the numbers obviously spike quite considerably.

    Before we look at the graph, a few words from BusinessTech:

    The US tops the list with over $25 million required, followed by Monaco, with $22.2 million, with Switzerland trailing in third ($16.6 million). In South Africa, the magic number is $1.6 million…

    On the other end of the spectrum, a net wealth of just $60 000 (around R827 000) gets you into the top 0,1% in Kenya.

    In Nigeria, that number sits at $250 000, or around R3,45 million.

    I guess if you really want to climb that ladder, without all the hassle, pack up and move somewhere where your current net wealth puts you in that top, elite bracket.
