I suspect that for a lot of people here the answer to "are you a millionaire" would depend on how you're valuing the stock they own.

Yup. I guess I'm a millionaire on paper, in reality my bank account is negative several hundred dollars and all my credit cards are maxed out. Yay start-ups!

By millionaire, do we mean liquid assets or net worth? And do we only count individuals, or does household wealth qualify? Because if we take the latter in both cases, a couple with decent white collar jobs, conservative spending, and maximized tax advantaged investments should make the cut inside a decade. It's boring but not difficult.
