Real story or not, I think we are all missing the point here. Most of us in the middle class will never count ourselves as rich (at least monetarily) because of the way we think about money. As long as we continue to buy depreciating assets (new furniture from the bigbox store, cars, run of the mill wall art and such) and don't bother to use OPM (other people's money), ie leverage, we will continue to wallow in mediocrity! Start thinking outside the box, and you'll go far!
