A rich career which allowed him to earn a nice sum once he retired. Despite this, Jean-Marc Sylvestre assures that he "needs more because we have desires, we have needs, we are insatiable". "I could invest. Maybe I want to start a business again. I already have one business, but I would like to start a second one. he declared.

"Yes, I'm a millionaire"

He also declared at the end of the broadcast to be &quot ;millionaire" : "If being a millionaire means having a million euros… So yes, I am a millionaire. As soon as you own an apartment in Paris, you are considered a millionaire. That’s the problem! As soon as you have an apartment, they point the finger at you", he said.

Le Parisien recalls that only 5% of retirees receive a monthly pension greater than 4,000 euros; in France.
