"Rich" is a relatively, Some people would feel rich if they could go to the grocery store every week and fill up their cart with whatever they wanted. For other people to feel rich they need to have social status or power over people or events.
I think the best measure of wealth is "net worth", which means the dollar value of everything you own minus the dollar value of everything you owe. A net worth of a million dollars is certainly not what it was 10 years ago but that is probably starting to be rich for many people who work for a living.

You will know that you are rich when you learn what true well really is. It is the love of your family that makes a person truly rich even my 8 year old agrees with this.

That's a interesting question. Being rich is a persons perception, there's no definition for how much a person has to have to be considered "rich". I consider many people rich that don't consider themselves rich because I don't own much. I don't think being rich makes a person happy.

I think we are rich if we are not hungry, when weather is hot we are able to make ourselves comfortably cool, when weather is cold we are comfortably warm. We can educate our children and have a roof above our heads.Elderly and sick people are well taken care of.We help each other and very contented.That I call it rich. Funny thing is this. $ 20,000.00 annual income people struggle. $200,000.00 annual income people do struggle too. If get more money want more things.I know one couple with combined income of $ 300,000.00 and live in beautiful house, driving beautiful cars, goes abroad for vacations,look real rich but they are in debt up to eyeball. Irony

As far as money go's? You don't have to pay taxes, you don't have to worry about how to balance your check book. Rich in friendship? Rich in Love? Rich in knowing God's Love? The answer is in your heart.You are happy!

You are rich when you have more money than you know what to do with.

When you have more money then others to spend. If dodgy people show up and consider you as their friend. Being Rich is a stretchy statement and depends on your own definition (incl. historic facts such as neighbourhood, pedigree, etc.)

~ You are rich when you are - happy - healthy - with family - in love ~ that's rich! and blessed. Money doesn't make you rich or happy. :-)
