Honestly, I grew up extremely poor, so just about everyone else's family was rich to us. Our house didn't even have running water, so if someone could have a shower without heating the water up in a kettle on the stove first, they were rich to me. If their parents drove cars that weren't rusted out, they were rich to me. If they had any toys they liked, or got stuff they wanted for Christmas, or had disposable income, or went on a trip, or ever had any new clothes that weren't hand-me-downs or secondhand, they were rich to me. If they had actual cash for food, and not food stamps / a free lunch card, they were rich to me. If they had cable and / or the internet, they were rich to me.

My childhood was pretty sad now that I think about it.
