It's all relative...Cindy & I have low annual spending since everything we own is paid for, and the daughter is now grown & on her own. So, we have $ left over at the end of the month, just sock 'em away for when/if we want to blow 30 to 50K, possibly more, on a new car in the future. But I really don't want a new 'status' car, preferring to be semi invisible in a Ranger pickup when doing the daily chores driving...so, for now, we'll just let the savings and investments grow until we can think of something we'd like to spend money on. So, it's all relative. Not so much how much you make as what you like to do with what you make. I don't consider myself wealthy...but in some ways, I guess I am. I do pretty much what I want when I want, and there's nothing out there I really feel the need to spend money on...well, I did just buy a brake bleeder from our host. Does that count?
