When you say rich, what exactly do you mean by rich? Like Parents make 100 grand+ a year, or like Millionaire rich?

*sigh*
My dad worked for a BC company who got bought out by an american company. Since he no longer had the job with the first company, he had an option to take out his pension. But he also had a thing in the contract or whatever when he was hired, that when he took out his pension, it would be doubled.
Plus upon the recieving of the money they( parents) put stocks in a Newfoundland ( i think) fishing company, which has since quintupled the invested amount.
My dad doesnt make 100 grand a year ( as far as i know) but hes up there somewhere. My mom doesnt work.
And they wont tell me the exact amount of the money we have, but i know its more than a million. This is including the money we had before.
I hope this has helped to answer your question.
EDIT: I just got the new Hives CD, and im super happy!!!!
