Meet the millennial 1% So how much do you need to earn to call yourself a millennial 1%er? Based on income alone, if you're under 35, you're a "top 1%" earner if your household earns more than $225,000. Something to #strive for, I suppose. My friend Nick wrote a great piece on Of Dollars & Data, so please enjoy this chart he labored over that shows top percentile earnings by age range: Age Range Top 10% Top 5% Top 1% 20-24 $71,268 $86,540 $149,663 25-29 $105,884 $134,392 $205,660 30-34 $146,609 $175,116 $254,529 35-39 $185,297 $247,403 $430,664 40-44 $238,240 $326,816 $767,661 45-49 $275,503 $383,830 $1,121,560 50-54 $240,276 $430,664 $1,425,365 55-59 $271,837 $458,153 $1,201,379 60-64 $219,913 $399,102 $1,150,473 65-69 $196,497 $259,684 $1,099,567 70-74 $167,080 $239,840 $961,960
