what does noveau rich mean?

Literally 'noveau rich' means 'newly rich' from the French.  As the other answers have noted it is someone who has acquired their wealth recently rather than having been handed it down to them through generations of wealthy predecessors.\n\nThose that are in the 'old rich' look down upon the 'noveau rich' and vice versa.\n\nPersonally, I'd like to be either type.  :-)

I believe the correct spelling is SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDO CIOUS (Yahoo! cuts off extremely long words for some reason).  It came from the movie MARY POPPINS, and is used as a miraculous way to talk oneself out of difficult situations, and even as a way to change one's mood. It's a mouthful to say (and, as I can see, a tough one for many people to spell correctly) but it means "ABSOLUTELY STUNNINGLY FANTASTIC".\n\n29 Nov 2006, 2:42pm; Philippines

My version of it's meaning:\n\nExample: I want to get into the water........I want to see real fish not pictures of fish\n\n\n\nWithin deepness is wonder, the endless azure pool--coolness for the burning heart. Within wonder is the Nameless--of It nothing can be said. To try is in vain. It drives the Almighty insane!\n\nSo you've prepared yourself well, but you must begin anew to understand laws that mortals find askew. Your love has limits. It cannot behold the swirling jewel.\n(author unknown)\n\nIn other words you can read things but until you actually experience it, you can only wonder about things.  No matter how old you get you will always have a new experience and more to learn about life

It means you have a classy style of dress, wearing your hair, and carrying yourself. And these things give the impression that you were raised in a wealthy family.\n\nIt means you would NOT have tattoos, or wear pants that show your crack, or go around with a cigarette hanging out of your mouth, or wear clothes that expose private parts of your body, and have a neat and tidy hairdo, and wear attractive but slightly conservative clothing.

Rich is a subjective word. Do you mean rich as in a net worth of one million dollars, one million dollars in 2005 dollars, or do u mean more like 15 million or more?\n\nRich is defined by the individual or surounding individuals. If one man with a net worth of 150,000 walks into a homeless shelter to help, the people there may look at him as being rich, although if the same man walked into the Chicago Board of Trade (Which I believe still holds the record for having the largest number of millionaires per square foot) he would be considered poor. \n\nThe only way to truly become wealthier is to earn economic profit, and the only way to do that is by exploiting market potential. Market potential is everywhere in America, you just need to open your eyes a little wider and you will see all the possibilities to earn economic profit, and meet your goal of what you believe it means to be rich. \n\nThere is definatly no system that can make a person rich in 20 years. If someone claimed a system existed and everyone got involved and it actually produced money it would mealy be inflationary more than anyhting. \n\nYou should also understand that money doesn't buy goods and services, goods and services buy goods and services, money is just the medium of exchange. So more money doesn't mean you can buy more. The more goods and services you provide the more you can get in exchange.

Thank you for the additional details.\n\nCould be some french deviation : \nUne tasse de vaisselle = A cup (of coffee). \nVaisselle means dishes, though.

Where you put on a fake front that you are rich when you are not, by borrowing money that you do not have by borrowing cloths and jewelry then telling someone that they are yours when they are not yours. When you lie that you own this or that and that you have been here or there when you have not. It is a degree of false richness that does not last long.

There is a famous hebrew saying - ' Eizehu Oshir? Hasomeach bechelko' - which simply translates to 'who is the rich one? The one that is happy with his/her share.'   There is probably nothing missing in your life. Things are only missing if you perceive things that way, i.e. that I deserve a could job, health, children or whatever else you think.  If you look at yourself and say this is my life and I am going to be happy and stop expecting or thinking that things should be different, you will get to happiness.

What i can say is that money can't buy it and that must mean that it is priceless.So if we have good health it would indeed mean that we are truly wealthy.Especially when you consider the price of surgeries and medicine these days.

The rich man is sometimes referred to as Dives. But this is just from the Latin word for rich man.
