The phrase "millionaires and billionaires" always makes me wonder about the speaker's understanding of scale. Nobody ever talks about "thousandaires and millionaires" and that's the same degree of difference. If you really have to draw the line around a category, the vast majority of "millionaires" have more in common with the thousandaires than the billionaires.
