    Wealth, to me, is relative, measured by how far-reaching you can do things.

    In the top tier, there are billionaires who can make decisions on the world stage, such as Elon Musk making satellites to help various countries or L Ron Hubbard buying a navy and putting places of worship in other countries.

    In the middle tier, there are people who can make decisions on the national level, such as smaller business chains putting their businesses in various states.

    In the low tier, there are people who can make decisions on the local level, such as buying management at a local school.

    And then there are the rest of us, who have our whole empires concentrated on a single street.
