Housing:

Say you have 2 homes (both are villas) (one is a normal home and the other is a vacation home (like a beach home probably)

Status/power: (tho within your own country so for my case that would be egypt)

Major general plus a tin factory business that even exports abroad from egypt if Iโ€™m not wrong

And say your distant family owns a resort too

So is that rich/upper class within egypt?

Also being able to go to 5 star resorts in egypt

(would this be rich)?

Classes are social relations to production and distribution. If you're talking about a factory owner, that's bourgeoisie, or capitalist.

    Yes, OP, your are rich. Not super rich, but clearly in upper class.

    "Say you own 2 houses". I'm in top 10% revenue in my country and I don't even finished to pay for my 1st one. And I'm now regularly doing thing that I watched on TV as a kid thinking "Whoa, I wish I could do this ! but only rich people can :(..."

    That sounds pretty upper-class anywhere, I would think.

    Rich, yes.

    Not "eat the rich"-rich, but enough so that I would expect some charity work and personal responsibility to make the world slightly better, for example improving the workers conditions and benefits.
