👉 A $10 million household net worth is roughly Top 5% in Singapore.

That’s only about 1 in 20 households.

We built a simple calculator so you can see where your household stands:

$1M household wealth is at the 50th percentile
$2M is at 80th percentile

For those asking about methodology 👇

We used the official data from Ministry of Finance:
https://www.mof.gov.sg/news-resource...-in-singapore/

Since the government only publishes data in broad percentile buckets (e.g. Top 20%), we:

1️⃣ Interpolated the missing percentiles
2️⃣ Cross-checked against wealth distributions in similar global cities (US Fed Survey of Consumer Finances, UBS/Credit Suisse global wealth reports)
3️⃣ Applied the typical Pareto-style tail seen in real-world wealth data
4️⃣ Verified that the generated curve still matches the Top-20% average wealth reported in the official tables

So the calculator isn’t claiming exact percentiles. Rather, it's a best-fit estimate consistent with Singapore’s published data and global wealth patterns.

Hope this helps 👍

👉 Singapore has ~1.45M households.
So roughly:

$5M+ → ~100k households

$10M+ → ~45k households

$20M+ → ~13k households

Still very small numbers nationally 🙂
