However, you can bet that a few more years of this and a lot more of us will be heading towards being poor.

My own personal financial definition of "rich" would be not having to worry about money. Ever. You set yourself up right and money is now of no concern. Then you are financially rich.

Poor would be when you are stressing about where your next $100 is going to come from, or you are struggling to make ends meet, if you can make them meet at all.

Oh very true... rich in this case is well past anyone in our Industry. For me it's those that are so wealthy that illegal / criminal activities don't touch them, that the money/power they have influences law and regulations, to benefit them... while taking our money to pay for the mistakes they made....

That's power, that's wealth... that's the real problem with this country!
