But there's also another side to the argument about not getting it though: people who think that someone who earns $250K per year is rich don't get what rich truly is.

Eh. I don't know. I think 250K is very rich, globally speaking. I agree with you that there is, of course, an entire other class of wealth (several other entire classes, really) with a very different kind of power. However, numerically speaking, there are a lot more of the 250Kers.

I agree that 100K is probably actually upper-middle class in the US. No one seems very eager to claim that moniker.
