What is your definition of wealthy?

I watched Larry King Live last Friday and the guest was Suze Orman. She was asked by Larry about her definition of "wealthy". She tried to avoid giving a number at first and after the anchor pushed her by saying "how about 25million?" She just answered:"no, should be 100million".

So, 兄弟姐妹们, what is your definition of "wealthy"? And if you take the definition as your financial target, do you think it is achievable before your retirement?
