This goes to show how skewed our values are as a society. Apparently, the definition of "rich" that the article portrays, is having large amounts of discretionary income, after buying everything you could need. That hypothetical family certainly sounds very well off, and I feel no pity if they have to cut back 10% on their retirement savings in order to send their kids to daycamp.
This article made me feel very sad and uncomfortable. In most parts of the world, simply having any one of the amenities listed there would signify being "rich".
