And there in lies the rub. Fifteen years ago many commenting here would have agreed that a million dollars was a lot of money (or arguably more than it is now). But the reality is that the median household income in the US has not increased over those 15 years, and has probably decreased when adjusted for inflation. Prior to 2000 it would also have been fairly easy to put money into some safe bonds and beat inflation without breaking a sweat. I guess my point is that a million is still 20 times the medium household income in the US (as it was in 1999) but it has been arguably harder for the average 'Young Dreamer' to move towards this figure if they started in the last decade.
