isnt there some cnbc show like called high net worth or something where all the advertisements are for yachts and private jets... at least some of those viewers must be rolling in the dough

I still don't understand how making 100k/yr can be taken to mean that you're wealthy...

Well these are numbers of people, not numbers of households, so its definitely $100k per year. I don't know about the US but in England:

A small Aston Martin = £90,000
A 3 bed house in a good commuter town = £300,000
Average wage = £24,500 (ish)

By my books £100k is wealthy, its what my dad made and he managed to put two kids through school, teach me to fly, drive and sail. Its not rich but its wealthy.

Riches buy you gold and land, wealth buys you meals in restaurants and a nice car every 3 years.

There are plenty of places in this country where making $100k would put you far enough above the average that you would certainly be considered wealthy.

Except you're living in those places.

Other than the superior dialogue, plotlines, costumes, and acting I completely agree.

 

[sunror]

that's a decent amount of viewers for cable shows

For a long time I remember Boston Legal dominated the ratings for wealthy viewers.
