Hey everyone, I'm new here and hope I'm posting this in the right place. I came across an article today from Gallup about the results of a recent poll they conducted. The poll asked Americans at which threshold they would consider themselves to be "rich." The median answer was...$150,000 in annual income. $150,000!!! Additionally, 30% of respondents said less than $100,000 a year would suffice.
Now granted a couple of months ago I probably wouldn't be answering too differently than those in this poll. In fact, I previously thought that making a minimum of $100,000 a year should be my barometer of whether or not I'm a success in the job market. "As long as I make six figures a year...," I would say to myself, but now I'm thinking a little differently thanks to TMF .
Anyways, I thought the article was interesting and wanted to share it to remind us all what IS and ISN'T a lot of money...
Here's the article and the full results of the poll (it's not a hyperlink - I wasn't sure if I could do that yet so just copy and paste it) - http://www.gallup.com/poll/151427/Americans-Set-Rich-Threshold-150-000-Annual-Income.aspx
Cheers,
