At what amount of savings or net worth do you consider someone to be rich?
Posted by Grinder


Curious of people’s personal opinions.
Either rich or wealthy, since the 2 are probably different.
It could either include the equity in the house (net worth) or just invested assets.
I’m starting to think “rich” starts at more than $5M but probably less than $10M invested assets.

It's more about time and burn rate to me.
Can that person stop working for the next 30 years and keep is current lifestyle?
He is much richer than someone making $500,000 per year and spending $500,000 per year.
One is a free man, the other is a high paid slave.

Currently I'm a high paid slave and feel like that every weekday.
I need to figure out to be the other person.
It is all about pursuit of happiness. So easy to say

This sounds ridiculous but I have taken the mindset that "rich" depends on the person and location.
One can be rich by living each day without care of how much money is spent.
One can be rich by living frugal but knowing that they are about to retire with means to live for 30 years.
It's more about the person and what they want. Someone may want to travel the world. Someone else may be content at the house or playing golf.

To me, Rich is net worth over 100 million. To me well off is network 10M-100M.

To me, that is very very rich. We all have different economic thermostats though.

Rich to me:
100k liquid. Have some sort of cashing flowing investment (Commercial, residential, own a business etc)
Make north of 400k a year.

When I can do what I want, when I want, with whom I want, for as long as I want.
Pretty close to this...
Basically, "enough", although that might really be way more than enough.

I don't know about RICH, but I believe when you don't have to think about what it is your spending money on I think you are well on your way.
I think the number I'd be comfortable with is a combination of:
Over 3M in low risk dividend earning stocks/bonds or a fixed retirement (6k) @ month.
Over 1M in investments with higher risk tolerance.
Over 500k in liquid cash.
Paper millionaire in assets.
I'm thinking over 6M total.

Roughly 3X of what I have. This ratio doesn't seem to change that much, even as my own value for X goes up. I guess when I was really young and had very little money it would have been more like 10X, but as an adult with a significant income it generally feels like "rich" is relative.

I separate the two.
Rich is defined in $ and it’s different for everyone.
Wealth is defined in freedom of time and is also different for everyone.

Enough to generate $100,000 of income per year without withdrawals

Rich to me is more related to income. Let's say >500k/year.
Wealth to me is more related to time. Can I do whatever I want whenever I want.
I know a lot of rich people who will never be wealthy.

So if I have 10M in assets but 25M in liabilities I am rich?
