ValnaoTIL that super-rich people love Wyoming. In some counties, the top 1% are richer than the top 1% in New York or California. If you want to meet someone wealthy, go to Wyoming
LexamResidents of Northwest Arkansas: “First time?”
My parents used to live in Fayetteville, the house they sold 13 years ago for $250k is currently worth $750k and the houses on either side have been bulldozed into combined lots for mini-mansions. It’s nuts out there.
acme401I don’t want to meet any more wealthy people, and I certainly do not want to go to Wyoming.
I’d love to do one of those things, guess which
I’d love to “meet” them! 🔫🤠
Sounds like if we nuke Jackson Hole during the big vacation season, we could solve a lot of America’s problems.
Miles O'BrienI’m not a fan of nukes.
I say we get about 1,000 people, some bulldozers, and then squish everything into one big pile in the middle. That should be enough, but we can always run over it a few times with a steamroller for good measure.
Call it “Mt. Capitalism” or maybe “Mt. Inheritance” and leave it as a warning.
You won’t meet them there. They have a house, register it as their home state for tax reasons, the travel to states they actually want to be in. They may take a 2-week summer vacation to the house, but it’s not like there are millionaire communes where everyone at the local coffee shop is ultra wealthy.
There are in Jackson, but only during tourist season.
As a note, you’ll often see or hear it called Jackson Hole, that’s the valley just south of the city of Jackson.
RememberTheApollo_An incredibly beautiful area. Used to go there as a kid 30+ years ago. It was a relative backwater, not super popular except as a stop for people visiting the Tetons.
Full of hundred-millionaires now. Like all the spaces taken over in Montana by the wealthy, or the mountain towns in Colorado like Aspen and Breckenridge. Commoners can fuck off.
The wealthy? Not sure what you’re alluding to, but you’d have to add a lot of other places to the list the wealthy have priced normal people out of. Everything from Texas ranches to the castles on Long Island.
talmillionaire communes
It’s not as exotic a status as it once was. About ten percent of America is composed of millionaires.

Inflation, ballooning home values and a decades-long push into stock markets by average investors have lifted millions into millionairehood. A June report from Swiss bank UBS found about one-tenth of American adults are members of the seven-digit club, with 1,000 freshly minted millionaires added daily last year.
1 in 10 Americans now millionaires, but the status loses some luster
The number of millionaires in the United States is soaring. A report from Swiss bank UBS finds about 1 in 10 American adults now has a net worth of at least $1 million, with 1,000 new millionaires added every day last year. That milestone, once reserved for celebrities and CEOs, is increasingly being reached by everyday Americans, thanks to rising home values, stock market gains and decades of retirement savings. With inflation, a million bucks no longer stretches as far as it once did, and many millionaires' wealth is tied up in houses and 401(k)s. But seven-figure status still holds symbolic weight. As one man who hit the mark put it, “It’s not a golden ticket like it was in the past" but it buys “peace of mind.”
「黃家駒 Wong Ka Kui」 | (aka: 鳳凰院 凶真 Hououin Kyouma)Invite them to a Hunting Trip… Dick Cheney style
I have it on good authority that it was actually a 20 (maybe less!) yo hooker that shot his buddy. Cheney took the fall cause he knew he’d get away with it and didn’t want the bad press (seems like overkill now but…). Friend used the same guide service.
