The largest number of millionaires in Hawaii.

A study on U.S. millionaires, released Wednesday, found that Hawaii has the largest number of millionaires per capita in that country.

The report by the Phoenix Affluent Marketing Service found that 6.9 per cent of Hawaii's households could be classified as millionaires.

There may only be some 28,000 millionaire households in this state, but when you consider that there are less than half a million Hawaiian households in total, that number starts to seem a lot bigger.

So if you're ever vacationing in Hawaii and are a little short on money to pay a bill, don't worry, there's a good chance you should be able to find someone there who could pick up the check.

Of course, in all seriousness, it's no paradise being rich in Hawaii.

The state is known for having a high cost of living and last year they enacted a steep 11% income tax on anyone making more than $200,000. And yet, even with that added tax, Hawaii is still facing a severe budget crisis and there's no doubt that the poorer Hawaiians probably wish these millionaires would do even more to help.

Total number of millionaire households: 28,363

Percent of population that are millionaires: 6.41
Median household income: $66,701

Can money buy happiness?

In fact, life generally becomes “a lot more complicated”

having more money often means more problems,

having money “brings about as many problems as it solves.”
