...Yeah, it would make you richer than most...if you lived in Bumfuck, Egypt. Got a link to that "fact" of yours that a net worth of $50,000. makes you "richer than most?" Here are a couple of links that show you how full of shit you are:

I'd love to see how many of your genius righty buddies will back up your claim that a net worth of 50K makes someone "richer than most."
Maybe you're trying to justify your broke ass existence. But don't worry, you've got a couple of years left before retirement. Maybe with a little hard work, you can get your net worth up to 60K. With your way of thinking, you probably believe that will make you a one-percenter.
Ed old boy, don't worry about making that Social Security check last until the end of the month. I'll donate to your local food bank so you can get some cans of food to help you make it to the next month.
As far as "erudite" is concerned, you wouldn't know sarcasm if it smacked you in the face. Did you see the subject line of the post where I put the word "so" in quotes? That was to mock your posts in that thread where you started several sentences with the word "so." You know who else starts many of his sentences with "so?" Bigguy30 - and we all know how erudite he is. "So" if you want to keep on thinking that you are erudite, be my guest. Keep on deluding yourself, just as you're deluding yourself by thinking that you're "richer than most."

He specifically said "richer than most" and NOT "rich."
The linked article shows a median net worth of about $45K per person in U.S., so Ed's claim, that $50k is "richer than most", seems to be true.
Indeed (does it meet with your approval to begin a sentence that way?), the median wealth in the U.S. is less than $50,000.
So, who knew part of the reason you think I'm a loser was because I wrote using too familiar jargon?
So, when you repeat rumors, especially when you know they are just rumors or worse (as in this case) that they are false (even if you disclose them as rumors), it makes you just as culpable (and dangerous) as the rumor originator. In my book, that truly makes one a loser not their grammar or how they characterize their own modest financial circumstance.
My comment about becoming those you hate was in reference to fake racial slurs of the Santa story not your Bannon reference.
So, who knew you were terribly afflicted with wealth envy, even in cases where it's not justified?
