In this chart, Visual Capitalist's Pallavi Rao explores a what-if scenario. How much money would each American get if divided equally?

First, we had to approximate a figure for all of America's money. This data comes from the Federal Reserve, which tracks M2 money supply in the country.

M2 money supply includes cash, savings, time deposits, and money market funds held in the country. It does not include stocks, real estate, or other investments.

America's population figures are sourced from the Census Bureau, with the estimate for July, 2025 used for this graphic.

Nearly $22 trillion dollars divided amongst 340 million American residents yields around $63,000 for each person.

This is because the U.S. accounts for almost 20% of the global money supply with only 4% of the population.
