I think your definition of “wealthy” may need a bit of an update at least in this context.
Perhaps your does. The wealth inequality in the US worse than the UK so maybe you are lucky enough to be in the top 10% that holds 67% of household wealth or maybe you have to be in the top 1% holding 30% of the country's wealth to make you rich in your eyes.
How many of the bottom 50% who own only 2.5% of the total household wealth own Cirrus or Pipers or Cessnas?
