I think this just kinda belongs on here

I have less levels. To me access to health care and education define the middle class today. Without them, you are one mis-step from penury.

To me someone is truly wealthy if they are secure in their lifestyle, without having to work. That means if you are happy living in a one bedroom in Northpark, you can probably be wealthy for a couple of hundred grand. If you’d like to live in Del Mar, well its at least an order of magnitude higher.

The key to true wealth in my eyes is lowered expectations, once you’ve got the basics covered. True wealth is the power of knowing you are far less controlled in your destiny than most of the poor shlubs driving fancy cars.

Piggs,

Let’s not kid ourselves, there is only 1 rich person here…..”RICH TOSCANO” that is 🙂

I digress, but for some of us the concept of rich/wealthy is unique. For me, I feel content with my life every time I make it down to Yosemite National Park, Grand Canyon…. or I’m out in nature (fishing, hunting, camping)…Yes, I do it often. If I make enough to live a decent life style, go out on a vacation, get out as much w/ my familiy I’m greatful. I get as many utils out of the experience as a wife of a CEO shopping in Paris, New York, or Beverly Hills.

Hence, a little amount of greed/want is good,yet I would not sell/trade quality of life for $ alone.

P.S. I do have some wealthy friends….and I second that they are constantly: miserable, worrying about their $, and have less time to enjoy life.

I am surprised to see so many of you equating being rich to not having to work. What’s wrong with working if you love what you do?
Bill Gates and the likes certainly do work, a lot.

“have to” versus “want to”.

Being rich, today, means that you can pay out of of pocket for any conceivable medical problem without insurance, without seriously worrying about your standard of living.
