My theory of "rich" is that it is measured not in mere dollars, but in the products or services you will pay for without a second thought.

For example:

I am now nice-dinner rich. I can buy good stuff from a local restaurant and not feel the sting.

But I am not business-class-RTW-ticket rich. I can, in theory, afford it, but I have to think about whether I think it's worth the money.
