What’s your definition of being rich?

[Ren]

I’ve heard “rich” defined as not having to work for your money but being in the position of your money working for you.

I’ll go along with that too. However, for me, the process of making my money work for me (investing and managing my business) is fun. I’d like to see it one day go from 50 hours a week to 20, though.

As for worldly goods, where you draw the line between rich and not rich depends on the person. I have no desire to own a casino or 200-foot yacht, but 3,000 sq ft on a half acre with an ocean view and a GT2 in the garage would be nice.

“Being rich means your name is Richard and you want to shorten it without being a dick.” – CBad

Being a multi millionaire with 2 or more million liquid (less property) is rich in my book.

“I think many people in this thread are defining “happiness”, while the original poster’s question was really about monetary wealth.”

My post might have influenced this view. I think I was talking about “rich” in the only way I believe it exists while thinking that people with various sized wallets and collections or stuff could have it.Actually I thought this is what the OP was asking? Darn bias.
If the OP’s question was “what do you think is a really big collection of money and stuff?” I would say “500 million bucks, mansions on both coasts and 13 fine cars of all vintages”.
