How wealthy are your family?

[WhiteGoodman]

My family is pretty wealthy I would say - I live in a nice, big country house. Me and my siblings were all privately educated and my family (particularly my Dad's side) all have a diversified income stream with lots of real estate, land, etc. I'm not even sure what my Grandad's main source of income is/was, he seems to surprise me every time I speak to him with a new wave of income from some side-business I didn't even know he had. My family on my Mum's side is probably not as well off but they still own a bunch of land and rent houses to people in the city on top of their main source of income.

I'm hoping to take over the family business(es) on my Dad's side one day but we'll see how life pans out.

What about you? Is the average .org user rich?

On the lower end but not poor, mother betabuxxed my dad. He earns a decent amount but she works lower hours in a shittier job. Meanwhile his sister married a rich guy and lives the good life

Upper middle class I guess, but it's kinda hard to tell because there is no such thing as private schools or universities where I live. Sure there are some, but they are not considered "prestigious" by any means. They are mostly catholic or some shit, not excatly elite, because my country has a different system than the US and every college here is free.

Money was never really a huge problem for me, my dad drives a 50k $ car, owns 2 real estates and rents one for business expenses.

One thing where I noticed I was above middle class was when my classmates had to work to buy an iPhone, a gaming PC or an e-bike or something. I never had to since my dad bought this stuff for me. He will also pay for my drivers license which is going to cost like 1.5 - 2k $. My dad also spent like 2k $ for my 18th birthday party this year.

I'd love to continue being upper middle class so I can buy my children the same type of stuff.

Marrying a rich guy is always an option for women. Men don't have that privilege.
