There seem to be a lot of answers that start with “I would say” or “I think”. I will share my thoughts but before I do that, Dave Ramsey did a survey of 10,000 millionaires and between stocks and real estate, stocks won buy a large margin. Inherited wealth was a small number. I won’t say that makes it a fact but it is something more than a guess like most of the answers.
I think what you have is tons of quiet millionaires who got there by working a good paying job that possibly had a matching 401-K and investing regularly. They don’t think of themselves so much as investors as they do just having a good retirement plan. Anyone who starts at 25 and invests $ 100.00 a week in a mutual fund or ETF will end up retiring with 1.2 million and that makes them one of the quiet millionaires I talked about.

Anyone who starts in with 20K or so and decided to invest to build wealth probably can do it faster in Real estate. Real estate returns on average about 3 percent a year vs stocks returning 9.5% a year but with real estate you can use leverage.
