We were having a discussion on tumblr about what people consider "wealthy" people threw out all kinds of numbers and criteria. But I have a simple definition.

A person is wealthy if they can afford full-time staff. That is, if you can pay the year-long salary for someone. That's "wealthy"

"obscene wealth" is if the number of staff is greater than two per member of your household.

That's too much power over other people. (running a company isn't always the same thing, but it can be.)
