Episode Details

A recent headline wrongly blames New York City’s millionaire decline on the current mayor—despite him not even being in office during the period covered by the report. The data reveals New York added more millionaires overall, but lost ground compared to states like Florida and Texas, especially during the pandemic. This trend is part of a long-standing migration pattern, not a new policy failure. The mayor’s image was likely used as a political distraction, since he only entered public office in 2020. The real issue? New York’s slower millionaire growth cost the state billions in lost tax revenue, masked by overall income gains. It’s not about one person—it’s about shifting economic tides and interstate competition.
