[quote=Anonymous]It's because everyone has expectations of what it means to be rich, and the mental image of "rich" doesn't line up with what $250K buys in the DC area. It doesn't mean you aren't actually rich. I think I'm rich, we have a HHI of $210K. We can afford a lot of things, and don't have to worry about money. But I shop at consignment sales and target, I clip coupons for groceries, we didn't go on vacation this year because of finances, etc. None of those are things that you would associate with someone who is rich, even though obviously many rich people make those financial choices in life.
