50 Millionaire "Must Haves"
Holy moly (sorry, just had to say it), this is one big list full of some big fun stuff. If you were a millionaire, what things would you definitely have? According to the Daily Mail, you'd have these 50 things at least. There's a complete "life" full of things on the list -- they hit everything from clothing to kitchen gadgets to transportation to edibles. Any of them you think absolutely don't belong? If I was going to kick something off it would be the AGA Oven, if only because it's so ugly.
Interestingly enough though, as Deidre pointed out, the list is missing one key item: a home to put it all in!
Visit our below gallery for more images from the list.

I was expecting that to be one of those god-awful Forbes rich guy things list, but I have to say that most of that stuff was actually pretty cool, and surprisingly affordable for those of us closer to dollar menunaires than millionaires.

Agree with most of the things on there (especially the Eames lounge chair and Aga) but they forgot a Barbour Jacket!

There are many things that I would add and quite a few things that I would subtract.

contrary to popular myth, most millionairs do not spend moeny lavishly or foolishly. frugality is a very common characteristic of migh net worth folks. read The Millionaire Next Door. two economists studied the lifestyle, spending and investing habits of several thousand millionaires. the findings surprised a lot of people. for example: (a) the overwhelming majority made their own money in business and professions. very few inherited anything. (b) they don't take lavish vacations, don't send their kids to private schools, don't live in castles, don't drive super-expensive cars, (c) as a group, they are avid investors in real estate. (d) and by the way, its the inherited wealth crowd that is FAR more likely to spend money like a crazy person. This makes sense to me. They did not earn it and do not have the same appreciation for it.

You have to be kidding. I have a million on paper and I can't afford these things. I think you should have titled this for the $10 millionaire. In addition, if you buy all this crap you are never going to save any money, That's whats wrong with this country. We worship at the altar of the shopping mall.

LOL I have to agree with Lucky and Tycoon...I find that it's the people that want to LOOK like they have money go out of their way to buy so much status crap. Yes, CRAP!! Who in their right mind would spend outrageous amounts of money for say a handbag? I was listening to a cashier at Old Navy gushing over my friends Louis Vittan (however it's spelled) bag, saying that she has her eye on one that ONLY cost 1500.00!! On HER salary? Beside the LV bags being UGLY and grossly overpriced, this gal obviously will never get ahead financially if all she has to show for her labor a year later is a beat up, out of style handbag. The dummy's that buy this status crap are PAYING designer's to advertise for them, and they are laughing at how stupid people are for purchasing MAYBE 10.00 worth of materials along with 15.00-20.00 dollars worth of labor for 1500.00!
Just to see if they can impress people. Weird.

A Rich Person is not the one who has the MOST....
it's the one who needs the LEAST.

Nice to have money to spend, its really not about the money, as it is with all the good you can do with it, ie., help your children, parents, charities etc. 6figuresandmore.com could help you get there. Once you are a millionaire, then your next million is not too far away, you can do both, buy all the toys and help your children or your favorite charities. Put your health above being a millionaire anyday, but why not have health and be a millionaire also,

I think there were a lot of nice things listed for millionaires. However, I didn't see one thing for the millionaire sportsman. I recently went to http://Penfishingrods.com & saw the greatest product ever. I bet NO millionaire/billionaire has one. It'sa small telescopic fishing rod which looks like a pen. It is 8" long & fits right in your pocket. It's the http://worldssmallestfishingrod.com
