Seriously, the lady posting that she has an HHI of $300k and a mortgage that is almost paid off in a good school district in DC and is *still* able to take vacations thinks she's not rich because her house is small and not updated?  Are you kidding me?

It's sickening.  Does she not realize how many people live in this area on an HHI of $60k, with kids to support?  No, lady, you are RICH!  Maybe we need a term like "working rich" because people seem to think that they aren't rich unless they don't have to work and live in a castle with granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, theater rooms, ladies in waiting and a butler and a limo and a private jet.

You do realize that what you're saying is pretty much the same as what she was saying? She said we need a term for people like her who aren't middle class but aren't Paris Hilton. You said we need a term like "working rich" to distinguish between her and crazy rich people. So you basically just suggested an answer to what she was saying.[/quote]

You do realize that I meant "working rich" as a joke, don't you?

The problem is that she thinks the definition of rich is Paris Hilton.  She said clearly at the top that she doesn't consider herself upper class.  And she most definitely is.[/quote]
