How PPP defines "rich"

[We Come In Peace]

Just curious.

[Koko78]

Anyone who makes a nickel or more per year than I do. The rich must be punished!

[IDBillzFan]

I think "rich" is kinda like "near poor," only with more money.

[B-Large]

Rich, to me is not how much you make, I have house/car broke freinds who make twice what I do... rich to me is how long can I live in my assets without working, how much overall wealth have a I accumulated....

 

I can tell you, I can live a great existance on 75K as well as 500K... difference being how much I "own", and how much money I have in the bank for a rainy day....

[IDBillzFan]

When you say "car broke friends," do you mean friends you have trained to get out of your car before they go to the bathroom?

[TakeYouToTasker]

Income level has nothing at all to do with wealth. Assets do. Ask better questions.

[VABills]

Depends on where you live and work.

 

In NYC, 200k is not rich

 

In Dunkirk, NY 200k is pretty rich.

Agree with Tasker. Got to look at the old balance sheet. But in general if you can say **** you to anybody you work with or for and just walk away from whatever you are doing b/c you don't need the money...then you are rich...although even if you don't have **** you money you may be rich based on the old balance sheet

[Nanker]

You're only rich if you're loved and you have your health.

[Rob's House]

Anyone who makes more than enough to afford a middle class lifestyle and have a little something to put toward retirement. You don't need more than that. And what you don't need, we take.

[B-Man]

none of the above.

you're rich if you're content with what you have, feel secure, fullfilled, loved respected and happy. he with the most happiness wins.

Or if you're a doctor.

That is some wisdom right there but I also think that explains why so many are envious of others. People who aren't achieving what you mention in larger numbers look to the government to provide those things. Many like the path of least resistance.

well said.

It can be a blessing...and a curse. Contentment is accepting both.

So, are you going to ask a better question, or what?

I asked the question I wanted to ask. So far the responses, even yours, have been great.

And if you could find a way to tax it and redistribute it, you would.
