There are plenty of other variables to take into consideration if you want to delve deeper into it. Whether or not the individual is married, has dependents, additional liabilities etc. And also whether the individual makes the conscious decision to keep a million dollars in the bank while staying in a 3 room HDB with a bicycle as his chosen transport... this is transparent and frankly, shouldn't be considered in this discussion.

The discussion is about the outward perception that people derive from a cursory and shallow look at an individual.
edit: replace transparent with 'not transparent to us'
