millionaire
One with millions
A millionaire is someone whose wealth equals or exceeds one million units of currency—typically dollars.
The term once suggested extraordinary affluence, but inflation has diluted its impact; today a millionaire may simply be a homeowner with retirement savings.
He became a millionaire before thirty.
Billionaire now carries the weight millionaire once did.
