Oh, it's true that the middle class is shrinking, but that's because more and more Americans are now rich!

And that's a good thing.

-What would you personally classify as "rich"?
That's a pretty wide variable depending on who you are, and where you live. Here's a fun site, you might get a kick out of it.

I'll bet you are "rich" in comparison with most of the rest of the world. ;^)

Myself, I don't view someone as even starting to be "rich", unless they have assets of at least 5 million. Anything less then that (IMO) doesn't even buy an "r" in the word! :)
