The prosperity of a nation can be gauged by the financial status of each household. Only when household incomes continue to rise can the well-being of the people be reflected, and the country can be seen as growing stronger and more prosperous.
A few decades ago, when our country had not yet entered a stage of rapid development, a family with an income of ten thousand yuan was considered wealthy, commonly referred to as a "ten thousand yuan household."
Several decades later, many families in our country may now earn more than ten thousand yuan in a single month, which indicates the progress of the times and that our country is becoming increasingly wealthy and powerful.
It is gratifying to see that more and more families can now achieve a monthly income of over ten thousand yuan. Some families have a husband whose income alone exceeds ten thousand yuan, and when combined with the wife's income, which also surpasses ten thousand yuan, the family's savings will be greater, and their lives will be even happier.

There is no doubt that many families in our country can now earn high incomes. Moreover, this is not the end; the incomes of these families will continue to increase in the future.
The criteria for "high-net-worth households" have been released, with a total of 2.11 million households in China. Have you met the standard?I. The Standard for "High Net Worth Families" is Unveiled
It is often said that "there is a country before there is a family." Only when a country becomes prosperous can families achieve happiness. Imagine if a country is not strong enough, the general public may not even have a guarantee of basic life, such as the general public finding it difficult to have a stable job. In that case, there is no stable source of income.
People need income to support their families and live a stable life. If they cannot do this, of course, there will be no good days to live.
For example, in many African countries, due to the worrying state of national development and weak economic strength, most of the general public cannot even solve the problem of food and clothing, and it is also a common situation to be hungry one meal and full the next.
Countries around the world have already realized this problem. In order to avoid letting the people of their own country suffer, governments of various countries will try their best to develop the economy and make the country as strong as possible. In this way, most families can have more and more assets, and thus live a happy life.
For example, our country is like this. After the birth of New China, our government has been doing its best to promote national development, hoping to let the people live a good life.
But it was very difficult at the beginning, and for a long time, it was like feeling the stone to cross the river, taking a lot of detours.
It was not until after 1978 that our country entered the right track of economic development. Since then, our country's economic strength has become stronger and stronger.In recent years, China's economy has been growing rapidly, and the standard of living for its people has been improving year by year. Against this backdrop, the general public can earn more money.
Nowadays, many families can earn a considerable amount of income in a month, and the annual income is even more impressive.
As incomes continue to increase, families will become more harmonious, and the atmosphere of happiness will spread, making society increasingly harmonious.
In November 2023, data from the Hurun Research Institute showed that 5.18 million families in China had a net worth of 6 million yuan, and these families are also known as "affluent families."
2.11 million families had a net worth of 10 million yuan, which can be called "high-net-worth families."
138,000 families had a net worth of over 100 million yuan, which can be called "ultra-high-net-worth families," and they are also the ceiling of domestic families.
It's surprising that so many families can become "high-net-worth families," and they are all the legendary millionaires. So, has everyone met the standard?
Many families still find it difficult to meet the standard, after all, the number of families that meet the standard is only 2.11 million. With so many families in China, this number still accounts for a relatively small proportion.Many families may not yet achieve a net worth of a million, and even several hundred thousand is a certain difficulty.
After the pandemic, a large number of families in the country have seen a reduction in wealth. For example, even many middle-class families have suffered heavy losses. The multiple properties they once invested heavily in were very valuable at the time, but now they have depreciated.
These are all their precious assets, of course, it is unbearable to bear. But it is strange that the total wealth of high-net-worth families has not decreased but increased. What is the reason?
In 2021, the total wealth of high-net-worth families in China was 160 trillion, but a year later in 2022, this number has become 164 trillion, obviously showing a growth trend.
This also indicates that the pandemic mainly affected the middle class and the lower class, as for those rich people, they are still continuously gaining more income. Obviously, the current distribution of wealth in China is still unbalanced.
This is indeed a thorny problem that needs attention, and it should be relieved or solved as soon as possible, otherwise it will bring a lot of trouble.
III. The grand goal of common prosperity
Our country is a country where the people are the masters, no matter when, the country is always thinking about the people, and strives to serve the people wholeheartedly. With the continuous strengthening of our country's economic strength, the country also hopes to make the lives of the people more and more prosperous.Our government has also set a grand goal - common prosperity. It means that everyone will become wealthy together and live a prosperous life.
After all, although the people of the entire country have been lifted out of poverty and have achieved a moderately prosperous life, many ordinary people are still not wealthy, and the money in their hands is only enough to support their families.
However, if the grand goal proposed by the country can be realized, then 1.4 billion Chinese people will be rich at that time, and there will be no wealth gap. Ordinary people will no longer need to live frugally every day, but can live a relaxed and happy life.
If everyone becomes rich, the country's development speed will be faster, which is also conducive to the early realization of the Chinese Dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!
In fact, although this goal is good, it is not easy to achieve. Because the population of our country is too large, how can it be easy to make everyone rich?
Looking at the world, even those developed Western countries cannot achieve common prosperity. They have been developing for many years, and a large amount of wealth is still in the hands of those capitalists. The lives of most ordinary people are not very good, and there are even places like slums.
Many ordinary people in Western developed countries still need to rely on government-issued relief funds to live a difficult life.
The population of Western developed countries is not as large as ours, even the United States only has 300 million people. In theory, they should be easier to achieve, but they have not.III. How to Promote Common Prosperity?
Although our country has long proposed and implemented the grand goal of common prosperity, to this day, we are still far from achieving this goal.
After all, most of the wealth is in the hands of a few people, who are the wealthy. As for the ordinary people, their wealth is not much, so when they encounter some irresistible situations such as the epidemic, the common people will find it difficult to bear.
This also shows that it is very important to achieve the goal of common prosperity as soon as possible. The following two methods may be effective.
1. Assist Innovation and Entrepreneurship
To achieve common prosperity, the wealthy need to take a leading role, and these wealthy people generally have their own enterprises.
However, these enterprises have now developed to a certain extent and do not need to recruit more employees to serve.
In this case, the country should help these enterprises innovate, so that the positions in the enterprises become more, and more people are needed to promote the development of the enterprises. Ordinary people can also earn more money, so that we are one step closer to common prosperity.In addition, the country should also encourage talented and capable individuals to start their own businesses, providing them with some funding and connections, allowing them to take fewer detours in the entrepreneurial process, save more time, and thus be more likely to succeed in their ventures.
In fact, many people today are brimming with talent, but they lack the initial capital and connections, so even if they are willing to start a business, they are unable to do so.
If these individuals can succeed in their businesses, wealth will accumulate more and more, which will also be beneficial to the goal of achieving common prosperity sooner.
2. Provide skill training to increase income
Many people at the bottom of society lack a particular skill, which leads to their inability to increase their income and acquire more wealth.
This is also why they have long been able to barely solve the problem of food and clothing, and it is difficult for them to have more savings in hand. Wanting to break into the ranks of the wealthy is even more difficult.
The country and society should provide skill training for the underprivileged, allowing them to master more skills. In the future, even the underprivileged can use their skills to increase their income and earn more wealth. At that time, we will have more hope of achieving common prosperity.
We must strive to gradually achieve a balanced distribution of wealth and continuously narrow the gap between the rich and the poor. It cannot be that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, as this will only widen the wealth gap and is not conducive to the early realization of the goal of common prosperity.This requires the joint efforts of the entire society. After all, achieving the goal of common prosperity is not a matter of a certain social class, but a matter concerning 1.4 billion people, which is extremely important and cannot be ignored.
The rich should help the poor, and the poor should also actively strive, and no class can slack off.
Undoubtedly, the road to achieving this goal is destined to be full of thorns, with frequent strong winds and waves.
But we must be fearless, break through thorns and brambles, and ride the wind and waves. Only in this way can the goal of common prosperity be achieved in the near future!
Conclusion
In recent years, China's economic development has been accelerating, and the lives of the people are getting better and better.
The "high-net-worth family" standard has been released, which is that the family's assets reach tens of millions of yuan. There are 2.11 million such families in our country.
It is still somewhat difficult to achieve this goal. This phenomenon also exposes some problems, that is, the distribution of wealth is still uneven, and the wealth gap is gradually widening.The nation has also recognized the severity of the issue, hence it has long set the goal of common prosperity.
If this goal can be achieved, these problems can indeed be resolved. However, it is not easy and requires the joint efforts of the entire society.
