What is Considered "Rich"?

I was browsing around one of my favorite sites... yelp.com and came across this topic in their talk section:
How much money do you really need to be "rich"?

It made me think of a video I saw earlier in the week:


In the US, we take our blessings for granted. We forget that most of us are automatically "rich" compared to the majority of the world, just by living in this country. In a society where we strive to be "rich", we get lost in the hustle and bustle. Lost in the fight to come out on top. To have more, or at least more than your neighbor does.

So, what is considered "rich"? Is it a certain amount of money? Is it driving the shiniest new car? Is it a house up on the hill? Is it having clean drinking water? Is it the fact that you're alive?

Something to reflect on when you're feelin' poor.
