Actually the income based definition of being “rich” is itself absurd. Net worth defines whether or not one is rich, not income. I know many folks who earn over 150k, but are deeply in debt. If they lost their job tomorrow, they would be on the street— that is not rich. OTH, the folks down the street who inherited a 500 acre estate and millions from their parents have no visible “income” other than a small annuity— that is rich.
