According to current data from the European Central Bank, a household in Germany with assets of 110,022.39 euros is right in the middle of the population. Wealth is defined as a monthly net salary of 8,000 euros, above which, according to a philosopher, it becomes immoral not to use one’s money for good causes. Research shows that more wealth can make you happier, and the poorest 20 percent in particular are often unhappy. Assets are more important than income, with the richest ten percent having more than 725,900 euros. Pension assets also play an important role in wealth creation and balance out inequality.
