that's the point, jag. it all depends on where you are sitting. i had a distant cousin refer to me as wealthy. i almost sprayed my guinness on him in laughter. to him, i'm wealthy. to me, one of my mentor's is wealthy, but he doesn't consider himself to be so. in his words, "i'm comfortable" he looks to others that he considers wealthy. i'm curious though because some people refer to "wealthy people" as if they had the plague, never realizing that wealth is all relative... (sort of like a fiance in kentucky.)
