  Nope, you’re wrong, look it up. Average income of the top 10% is like a third of that figure. …org.uk/scale-economic-inequality-uk/

    I don’t know what planet someone is on to think that sort of money doesn’t put this family in “rich” territory.

    Maybe it’s the differing interpretation of “rich”. Maybe it’s living in London and losing perspective because you’re surrounded by wealth and lose scale

      They seem to be insisting on an alternative definition of “rich” that means you don’t have to work for a living. That definition is fine, but they insisted on using it without explanation and causing confusion and then being condescending about it so I just blocked them.
