250k in Arkansas is rich … 250k in NY or SF is not. There is a sliding scale here and calling everyone at 250k rich is just not true. Especially when the local tax burdens in places like NYC are so high.

Everyone at $250K is in the rare air in the US of being extremely secure. EXTREMELY secure. No, they won’t have a mcmansion because land’s too expensive in the bay. It’s also reap spendy in Tokyo and Moscow!

Why don’t you ask some random people in Russia whether they think $250K a year in Moscow is rich or not, hah

Basically, you seem to be telling me that rich is all about how big your house is, which is ludicrous

This hairsplitting about what’s rich, I love it
