What can you find in an affluent person’s home that you wouldn’t find in the median American household?

Read David Ecale's answer to this question. I offer no comment or opinion.

For an interesting adjunct to this post you might like the thread "Putting things in a Shopsmith Context" that I put in the Woodworking Tool Review Forum for reasons that reading it will explain fully.

Shopsmiths are for the affluent? Now that's a new one. Usually people (not on this forum) say Shopsmiths are like effluent.

I guess I am stupid and missing something. Why is the OP's link not spam?

I'm far from affluent. I don't have anything on their lists except One Shopsmith and a house full of custom furniture and woodwork. But, those two things came from my hard work and a few dollars for materials.
My pickup is 17 years old and my car is 29 years old. Nothing there to impress the affluent folks.
