It becomes a lot harder with where you draw the line otherwise. Is it based on saved wealth? Income including work? Income independent of working? I don’t have good answers to these questions and very often everyone has their own definition they’re working from anyway, and nobody spells out what it is before talking about these topics so I wonder how much we’re really understanding each other.

It’s based on how does your income/wealth compare to the people who live on your block, or whose kids go to the same school as your kids.

By this standard, everyone is “average”.
