We have an <100K income and >10M in assets. We live frugally, since there is no spending of capital. I suggest you bear in mind that there are as many financial situations as there are people and that initial appearances can be deceiving.

Not if it’s flowing out as fast as it’s flowing in. Wealth is what you have coming in, even if you don’t get out of bed in the morning.

Another form of this can be a paid off house, because that represents cash flow that’s NOT going out every month in mortgage or rent. Call it imputed rent, if you’re Fancy Nancy.

If your net worth is high enough, cash flow doesn't matter. You can draw indefinitely from your savings and investments.

You’re doing great. Paid off house is nice. And frees up a lot of monthly cash for buying investments.

We spend a lot less than DCUM thinks you need, and invest the difference?

I am $3M at 40. When DCUM discusses HHI, we’re barely middle class ($250k). When we talk about net worth, then I’m borderline wealthy.

I agree 3 million but it also depends on your age. 3 million at 40 is more impressive than 3 million when you are 70.

You need to first quantify or define "wealthy".
