If you have to ask, you're already nowhere close. Also, the millennial age range is far wider than what you've presented here.

So you are so worried about making it to the 1 percent level, who are you competing against?

At least 1/3 - 1/2 this amount.

Much of DC is in the top 1-2% of the country

Agreed.

29F and 165K but I don't consider myself a '1-percenter', just lucky and a hard worker.

Easily $400K. Many of my friends at 30 make $250,$300.

The number is higher than what some people are going to suggest. Reason? Because 1% figures in general take into account retirees. Not just working age population. So millennials are presumably all working. So average HHIs are higher than those 1% stats suggest.

1% millennial is probably a big law lawyer? Or maybe they're 0.10%? Few years out of law school in DC they pull $200K.

It will still be lower than the overall 1% threshold. Another question is married or single earner, as they always speak in terms of household earnings.

OP should realize that the oldest Millenials turn 37 this year.

That's bullshit because it's counting 18-23yo, who are still undergrads, and even 18-25yo who are still in law or graduate school. I'd be more interested is a study that isolates 27-34yo. If I had to guess, it's probably more like 136k.

Most of DC is 1% in the country.

Just because DC has the richest of the rich living here, does not make anyone who is in the actual 1% any less wealthy.
