Household wealth reached £9 trillion in Great Britain between 2006 and 2008, according to a survey from the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
Its new wealth and assets survey found that 39% was in property, 39% in pension assets, 11% in financial assets and 11% in physical goods.
The average wealth of households was put at £204,500.
But while half of households owned just 9% of the wealth, the most prosperous 20% of households held 62%.
"The wealthiest area was the south-east of England, with a median household wealth of £287,900," the ONS said.
"The area with the lowest median was Scotland, with £150,600."
Labour has made us all truly rich. I my case, stunningly so.
