About this episode

You might think America’s top 10 percent would consider themselves rich – but a new Bloomberg survey finds that many of them don’t feel that way. Bloomberg’s Craig Giammona and Claire Ballentine join this episode to share what they learned when they asked people across the country a simple but not-so-simple question: How rich or poor do you feel today?  Plus, Yale social psychologist Michael Kraus discusses how perceptions of wealth shape our well-being, sense of self and relationship to others.
