[CNBC] New data from WealthInsight shows that Beijing and Shanghai each have more multi-millionaires now than Los Angeles. The study measures the segment of the population worth $30 million or more, known in wealth-industry parlance as "ultra-high-net-worth individuals." Beijing has 1,318 people in that group. Shanghai has 2,028. Both are higher than Los Angeles, which has 950 people worth $30 million or more. New York still towers over the others when it comes to the ultra-highs, with 2,929 people worth $30 million or more. |

#1 OTOH see BHARAT RAKSHAK > WHY CHINA'S [+ Pakistan's] SUPER-RICH ARE PACKING UP AND MOVING ABROAD. Those whom haven't left are planning to leave. THE TALIBAN = HARD BOYZ MAY HATE FEMALE EDUCATION + LIKE TO BLOW UP GIRLS' SCHOOLS, BUT EVEN THEY SEND THEIR OWN DAUGHTERS OVERSEAS TO ELITE SCHOOLS. OH THE BOOK/DOLLAR-MANITY! |
