More like "rich" is relative to location...

You are obscenely rich by any reasonable global standard.

I think you sorely lack perspective on this issue. Most single-family homes have 1 - 1 1/2 baths and are less.

5 bedroom houses with 4 bathrooms are rare, whether or not they surround you in your immediate vicinity. Inf act, houses over 1500 sq feet are in the minority.

Skywalker, you are obscenely rich on ANY standard.

I know people who live in the most beat up, tiniest houses lucky to have water and electricity; people who have a roof over their heads at all only because of government help; people who live in trailers that might well cave in at any moment, and that is the maximum of what they can afford, they aren't wasting a dime on any unnecessary luxury. If you ever left your suburbs, if you ever left your School For Eggheads, all of the rich whitey suburbia, you'd see plenty of it in Virginia.

Or maybe not.

Median household income, Virginia: $80,000
Median household income, Camden, AR: $27,814

Final conclusion: Just stay in Virginia. Someone who isn't a fellow rich whitey will slap you if you say things like that outside VA.

Rethink that, actually. And you are still obscenely rich by any global standard. Until you start publicly maligning yourself for having the GALL to live in such LUXURY while people starve in Africa, I don't give a **** about your criticism.

that's probably true, since it takes money to make money!

See the resentment you get when you mention how much money your parents make? That's why I haven't told anyone that my dad is president of Nevada.

But thats just Northern Virginia... or more precisely the DC suburbs. The rest of the state (minus VA beach) can get pretty raunchy.

But anyways, Kuci, you have to at least be aware that what you're privileged to isn't the norm. There's nothing to be ashamed of having money, but most people don't live in such lavish conditions. Thats just a fact. Even people who aren't "poor" don't have 5 bathrooms. Like my parents house only had 1.5 baths... and we were middle class. And this was also in New England... a place which, economically speaking, is much better off than Virginia.

Apparently he is aware of it, because it is SOOOOO easy getting under his skin ribbing him about his privileged lifestyle.
