Yeah, which would once again just mean rich relative to them.
Uh, yeah, that's kinda been established.

But if you think making 25k in the USA being classified as rich is fine all because it's better off than 3rd worlders then there's really no sense in discussing it further.
Honestly, now I don't know if you are ****ing with me or purposely being obtuse. Of course someone making 25K in the U.S. is not rich RELATIVE TO PEOPLE IN THE U.S. Who do you want to relate this discussion to?
And seriously, enough with this:
Dude, it's like a four word definition, many of which are of the 'relative' variety you speak so lowly of. I get it. GREAT WEALTH. ASSETS.
Really, I think the problem here is rich people honestly do not believe they are rich (this has been brought up by someone else in the thread). But looking from the outside, it is hilarious.
450 lbs. man walks into the doctors office. Doctor says "Sir, you are fat and you need to lose weight." Consider the following responses:
1) Yes, I am fat, but I'm not gonna lose weight. Piss off.
2) I'M NOT FAT. What about that 600 lb. guy over there! He's fat. What are you Dr.? About 190 lbs.? You know, in Ethiopia, YOU WOULD BE CONSIDERED FAT! Fat means 'great girth'. My girth isn't great. I can still get into my car! I'M NOT FAT I TELL YOU! Since I'm not fat, I'm not going to lose weight.
Seriously? The second response?
