tant to correct errors When asked one MIR.
Moneybags whether he was worth $5O,OOO,OOO
as reported, he snorted, 'Nonsense!' - and
changed the subject. The man generally
credited with being the richest in the world
is bejewelled Indian prince, the Nizam of
Hyderabad. who says his fortune, estimated
at So, ,OOO, 100000, is too complicated to count.
just what is a millionaire? A man
earning "a million dollars year? Or one
who has million dollars?
If the limited first definition is accepted, the
U. s. now harbors only 81 millionaires and
"a multimillionaires. Before the 1929 crash,
we had 5l3 million-a- yearers, many of them
ticker-tape born.
But the dictionary defines millionaire as
anybody possessing million dollars. BY this
yardstick, this country now has 5000 million
