It's really all about perspective. I would say that 90% of us on this forum would be considered to be "rich" by the majority of the population, if for no other reason than our hobby. People think that playing with cars is expensive (and it is), but if you are willing to make other sacrifices, it really isn't that bad.
When I was working at Sheetz, I personally owned 5 vehicles at one time. Tell me that people didn't think I was doing something on the side.
The fact of the matter is, people are much quicker to judge you rather than considering your priorities or actually thinking about the situation.
I'd like to think that I live well, but I buy virtually everything second hand and at a deep discount compared to Joe Blow who paid top dollar and bought it from the store a year earlier.
