Would this person be considered rich?

-The dad makes $86,790 a year and the mom doesn't work at all. Is this a family that could live in a big house and buy lots of nice expensive things?definitely not rich, even if your mom made the same salary as your dad. They would be doing well, if they both made that salary and saved for their retirement, then maybe, but rich is considered, when money is no issue, you don't have to work if you don't want to, and you can do can live in beverly hills in million dollar listing, driving a ferrari and flying to europe every month for shopping.

depending on how they spend their money, they could manage to buy things and save at the same time for sure it is a good salary.Rich, Big House, & Expensive things. all nice but what about good health.



If you never learn to appreciate the important things in life, the big things that you get for DOLLARS and suddenly become of no importance. I spoke this AM with an attorney that has an excellent reputation for advocating for his clients. A couple of months ago his wife of near 50 years was in a horrid auto accident (he is a personal injury attorney) she was put into a full body cast. Three weeks later he was in an accident which totalled his auto. He was injured but will recover fully after 3 months of PT. 2 weeks later he had a death in his family. And last week he had to have skin cancer removed from his face. I suggested that he might have been better off with no luck because all he seemed to be having was bad luck. He paused a few seconds then said Yep...your kinda correct.



The point I would like to make is, Your apparently young and thinking about the future. That part is good. buhappinessdo not make happyness. Our nation is in more trouble today than at any time in its history. The way things are going I believe were going to see so much inflation in the next 20 years that the $86,790 your questioning may be below the poverty level! Of course if your well educated and our legislators do not ship the remaining good jobs to China, Bulgaria or somewhere else that few of us know much about you may be able to live on $400,000 so long as your happy with clothing from the Salvation Army or Goodwill.



Get with it kid, your values are way out of line, your asking the wrong questions to get the answers you really need. Of course I am not telling you the answers as I likely have grandchildren older than you. Worry about your education, consider politics, do something for someone else, be happy

with your accomplishments.
Well nicole , it depends on what your buying , yes you could stay in a big house , but i dont think you could buy lots of expensive things. If you want all those things , You should stay in the house your living at the moment for like 2 - 3 yeers , then you will get all these things . Hope this helps.

It would depend on the state that they live in and how big the family was. That would be enough to live comfortably and afford some nice and expensive things, but not everywhere.
Depends on their expenses and size of the family 86, 790 is enough to live comfortably but it variable.
they could afford a nice house and expensive things, but they are average salary i guess. Anyone who goes to college should earn around that or way more
they are wealthy but not rich. rich actually has an amount you need to make annually i think its about 3 million but im not too sure on the exact amount
they may live comfortabally.bt may nt hv savings...
Yes
