I'm wondering how many of us feel like this. I was poor when young, living paycheck to paycheck. Over the years I've saved, have money in retirement, brokerage, college funds for kids...I'm financially secure. But the closer I get to retirement the more I save, resulting in a situation that looks awfully similar to being paycheck to paycheck. There's money there, but if you spend it, it's gone.

So what is wealthy? To me, wealthy is you can spend money on something and you won't miss it. If I have to remove money from investments to pay for something, it hurts. I've damaged my nest egg. I don't know if I'll ever feel like I'm actually wealthy, save for winning the lottery.

Over the years I have watched people in astonishment, people that view money differently. Expensive cars, lavish vacations, season tickets to sports. From a lifestyle perspective they are wealthy. So is that wealthy?

I'm just genuinely curious how people perceive wealth. Is it a number in your accounts? Or is it the big house and the fast car?
