Hmm the salaries listed don't make me think "rich people". When I think of Rich People, the sports are Equestrian, Mountain Expeditions, Sailing.


Well, there is "rich" and "rich". For Tech workers salaries are a lot for most people. I'm in my early 20s and make more than my dad ever made.

After a quick google search I found these links, no idea of how serious they are though. I'm sure someone making 30k a year thinks people earning 50k / 75k / 126k (nbrs from the article) are "rich".

Maybe more along the lines of "not poor" people then. "real" rich people definitely lean towards these kinds of sports.
