I don't consider someone rich if you can see their house from the street. Unless the 'house' is an entire floor or two of an NYC skyscraper, that doesn't count.

Agreed gated communities isolated properties privacy is generally paramount for the ultra wealthy.

I think people would rather be called a nigger than be told they are from the lower class.

i used to cook for my himalayan cat though. the cook didnt like him, and would over cook them. so the cat would sneer.
id usually get up and cook a proper t-bone for him at night. he was into omaha beef. gram wouldnt let us fed him the KOBE.
i miss that cat, i keep his oil painting above my bed.
This is really how the upperclass are. Any one who thinks this is trolling should read more about class from the perspective of culinary aspects, reading habits, taste, socialization, language, etc.
A single bookshelf and what items are on a table can usually give you all the details you need to denote class.
There's a difference between rich, and the type of rich you are referring to. I don't have to read all that shit to make assumptions about someone making such far-fetched claims on the internet.

someone has been watching to much downton abbey.
although most of what you say is true, it really is just common knowledge with a personal edge to make it believable to the commoner.
Billion is the new million as most in the know would say.

K. Rich is having money to spend on a range rover, a $300,000+ house, living in a nice neighborhood, designer clothes, and going out to eat 6-7 days a week. Not just having a limo driver, a chef, a $500,000 wrist watch, and all the outlandish things described as "rich" in this thread. If you don't consider any of the things I've listed wealthy enough to be classified as being rich then I think you are being ignorant.
I'm not defining rich with the things I've listed, I feel rich is more like what people consider middle class in america, but I listed 5 things like you asked.

The gap will never, ever, ever, ever be bridged. There will always be people who prefer the T.V. Guide to Jung And that friction will cause snobbery And the ability to rarely relate.
But thanks for trying.

That is affluent, and not necessarily upperclass.
It is rich, but not Old Money.
Two people can make the same amount of money and be from different classes.
Thank you for replying! Honestly. Most people I feel wouldn't.

300k house? the kennel and the hot tub decks, cost 180k, just to dynamite the cliff for the walkways and terraces. and haul off the stone.
i never saw the bill on the actual buildings.
and ,that didnt include the damages to the plaster in the guest house, when the shock wave went thru the rock!
range rover arent a big deal. we howled when we got them in HS, we wanted pink bentleys. lemem tell ya , a cream range rover, is NOT a pink bentley. its kinda a buzz kill actually.

If your buildings don't have at least one aesthetically pleasing gable, It would automatically like lose 10 points in my book. If I had to pretend I'm psychic I would bet it is French Style chateau with Mansart Roofs.

A $300 000 house is rich?

You make me laugh. You can barely buy a condo in my city for that. $300 000 is a baseline, not even CLOSE to rich. The rich we're talking about in this thread is $2 000 000+ house.

I don't care who designed it The point was to figure out architectural style And I would guess French style Mansart roofs (if built recently, probably no stratification) Dormer windows, most likely Neo Classical Not all palaces are equal I've been to enough to know However I would guess French probably not Germanic or Eastern Europe style
