意味
Someone with a lot of money.
文化的背景
Estonians are generally private about money. Asking 'Are you a rich person?' is considered very intrusive. In the US, being a 'rich person' is often seen as a goal to be celebrated and displayed. Wealth is often hidden or expressed through subtle quality rather than overt display. There is a historical divide in perception between 'new wealth' and traditional status.
