Currently, there are large differences between the poor and the rich. However, there is still a stratum of the class of well-to-do or fairly well-off individuals. What group of people fit these descriptions?
Gone from the living wage
The first step in Russia can be considered a well-to-do person who has left the minimum living standard of living. If, according to the law, the subsistence minimum per capita is 8,000 rubles a month, then any person who receives more than 8,000 rubles a month can be considered a person living in prosperity.
Perhaps this is ironic, but in fact, one or two hundred rubles a month in excess of the established norm can officially turn an unprotected cell of society from low-income to well-to-do. On the one hand, some 100 official rubles of salary can degrade a person to an unpleasant title - poor, and on the other hand, the same unfortunate 100 rubles in salary in excess of the established subsistence minimum limit are automatically deprived of state benefits.
Can afford
However, all this was only philosophical and normative-legislative reasoning. Truly people who live in abundance should be perceived as those who can afford at least something. For example, buy those products that are vital, healthy and without the absence of dubious modern dietary supplements, soy and preservatives.
If a person can afford to buy healthy food, he can be considered sufficiently wealthy.
Sometimes they rest
When a person can afford to go on vacation once a year (in this case, it does not mean to go to the village to see his grandmother or to his own dacha), then the family can really be called prosperous.
If people live in abundance, they can afford going to cafes, cinema, theater. Their cultural program implies festive and entertainment events, and life is not limited from salary to to. Wealthy families are able to save even small amounts for the near future.
Possibility to plan for the future
You can plan your own future in cases of a stable and acceptable level of income. The person who is confident in the future, his stable level of earnings, can call himself a person who lives in abundance.
He knows what his plans are for the future and is sure that he will be able to carry them out. At least a wealthy person does not need to worry about his goals for the future from a material point of view. He is able to afford such a luxury as the near planning of events, and he does not have to fear for every little thing from the outside that can frustrate all carefully prepared plans.
