I know too many people use the word "rich" very loosely. They usually think about the guy who makes multi millions per year.

But just exactly what level of income = being rich?

Or if it is easier to answer....and if the opposite of being rich is being poor, then what level of income = being poor?

There alway was, there will always be the haves and the have nots. In the current phase (being polite) this country is going through it is in style to create class/race/religious/etc distinction for personal gain.
The 24/7 media is the real perprtetrator by continually pumping the class/race/religious subject.

What happened to being happy with what you have? No matter what there is and will always be some one who is either worse off or better off than you.

Money is not the only measure of the status of rich or poor!!!!!!!!!!!!
