By any standards, that's very expensive.

Darleen, some good news, for some.

>>There are more millionaire households in the U.S. than ever before according to the "Affluent Market Research Program", an annual survey issued by TNS Financial Services. In mid-2004, TNS reported that 7% or 8.2mm households had a minimum net worth of one million dollars.

Approximately 2.2mm new households joined the millionaire club in 2004, representing a 33% increase. Experts attribute the rise to strong market conditions. In 2003 when millionaire households increased by 13% the driving factor was real estate appreciation.<<

All it took was an old house and a more or less paid-off mortgage. The joy of fiat money.
