[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because there is always a bigger fish. And most people will be looking up and comparing themselves to them. We make $700K. I do not consider myself rich or wealthy because there are big law partners making $3M a year. To me, those guys are wealthy and we're just small fry. It's how it works. [/quote] YOU ARE WEALTHY. Good grief. A household income of $700,000 is a lot of money - a lot of WEALTH and counts as WEALTHY - and it is fairly appalling that you don't think so. If you are only considering people to be rich when there are very few people who make more/have more wealth, you are basing your definition on making sure that being wealthy is something other people do, but not you. If you consider yourself to be small fry when compared to the alleged Big Law partners making $3M, what do you consider someone making $150k? What kind of "fry" are they? I myself net $70k. What kind of "fry" am I?[/quote]
