Today is NATIONAL BE A MILLIONAIRE DAY!

DREAM BIG!...."Alexa.. play ‘A Milli’ by Lil Wayne on iHeartRadio"

What does your life look like as a millionaire? FOR ME, it would just be nice to not have to worry about certain things....LIKE....all the BILLS! Obviously, a million dollars isn't exactly what it used to be but it's still a life changing amount of money.

When adjusted for inflation, here's what a million bucks in today's dollars would have been in:

1950 - $9,708,737.86

1970 - $6,024,096.39

1990 - $1,788,908.77

2010 - $1,071,811.36

2015 - $1,000,000.00

2018 - $990,000.00.

Fun Facts...

The first multi-millionaire in the United States was John Jacob Astor (1763 – 1848). Astor made his fortune in trade and later established the first trust in American history. His great-grandson,John Jacob Astor IV, was the wealthiest person aboard the Titanic.
