Housing:
Say you have 2 homes (both are villas) (one is a normal home and the other is a vacation home (like a beach home probably)
Status/power: (tho within your own country so for my case that would be egypt)
Major general plus a tin factory business that even exports abroad from egypt if I’m not wrong
And say your distant family owns a resort too
So is that rich/upper class within egypt?
Also being able to go to 5 star resorts in egypt
(would this be rich)?
Rich, yes.
Not “eat the rich”-rich, but enough so that I would expect some charity work and personal responsibility to make the world slightly better, for example improving the workers conditions and benefits.
Classes are social relations to production and distribution. If you’re talking about a factory owner, that’s bourgeoisie, or capitalist.
Yes, OP, your are rich. Not super rich, but clearly in upper class.
“Say you own 2 houses”. I’m in top 10% revenue in my country and I don’t even finished to pay for my 1st one. And I’m now regularly doing thing that I watched on TV as a kid thinking “Whoa, I wish I could do this ! but only rich people can :(…”
That sounds pretty upper-class anywhere, I would think.
