There was a good "scales of wealth" post I read some time ago, it wasn't so much about hard figures but about what financial decisions you need to think about before doing; it starts with the basics like groceries, if you don't need to think about what to buy, what brands, or what your weekly budget is for groceries, you're up one level.

That scale went up from that, to vacations, to cars or houses, then up to really expensive things like private yachts and airplanes.

It's all relative to income; for whoever they were, a 10K purchase might represent about as much as their monthly income as a six pack of beer would be for me.

And their wealth was probably still only a fraction of what the super rich have.
