In an internationally held study to determine the happiest nation in the world, Israel was found to be the eleventh happiest nation of the 146 countries surveyed. This ranking is surprising in view of the numerous terror attacks that the counrtry undergoes.
There are 88,231 millionaires currently living in Israel, most of whom have a net worth of between $1-5 million, according to the 2015 Global Wealth Report, published by Swiss investment bank Credit Suisse. Seventeen of these are billionaires.
Israelis who are subject to compulsory military service can look forward to economic security. No wonder Israel is a happy nation.
