Economics - March 2007

Does anyone know of an "official" formula for determining whether someone could consider themselves monetarily rich? Of course, all things are relative to region and personal choices; for instance, $100K annual is not going to be the same in L.A. California as opposed to Gary Indiana. My question is more in regards to what seems like an endless barrage of accusations of wealth directed towards what I would consider to be middle-class. I typically shrug this off as populist newspeak, but it has gotten me to wondering where the line of middle-class ends and "rich" begins.
