Depends on how you define rich. If I make enough to have a decent home, food on the table and have a rainy day fund, does that make me rich? I don’t think so. But for many people (me included) that is the dream. I don’t want fancy cars or big mansions or expensive suits or anything “rich”, I just want what I consider a normal life.

But for some people I am rich, because I don’t need to live paycheck to paycheck. I think that’s stupid. I shouldn’t be considered privileged for having what I consider a normal life. I think everyone should be able to afford the life I have, that should be the baseline not the dream.
