So jump from 8.6 million to 100 million in 15 years?
NFW.

"The Capgemini and Merrill Lynch World Wealth Report ... finds that the number of global millionaires fell to 8.6 million from 10.1 million in 2008. The declines were the largest since Capgemini/Merrill started the survey 13 years ago. (The survey defines millionaires as those with investible assets of $1 million or more).

There were 2.5 million millionaires in the U.S. at the end of 2008, down from 3 million in 2007."
