Nov 27, 2018 at 0:10 | comment | added | choster | "More common" is a useless metric here, as the terms will be used differently in different contexts, as might wealthy or high net worth or well-off or affluent and so on. In my social circles, where drawing attention to someone's economic status would be somewhat gauche, we wouldn't use such terms at all, only obliquely comment that someone is comfortable or doing all right for herself or some such. | |
