Why do people often say the word" millionaire" To be honest Is having a million dollars really rich?

I make 37,000 a year, I pay 9600 a year to live in a large bedroom, have just enough for expenses and a membership at a health/swim club, so what do you think?

To me it would be. To some it might not be.

It's more money than I'll ever have.

I've got $38 to my name til payday. You tell me.

Not these days

You serious?

Supposedly, the word "millionaire" was first used in the 18th Century; I am sure that having $1,000,000 at that time was more than enough the live off for couple of life time. Nowadays, it depends on where you live.

It meant a lot when it was first used.
