we've been through this
it's all relative! i certainly do not consider myself to be "minted" - that would be someone who could afford to give up work and still have a nice home, 3 holidays a year, spa-days every couple of months, designer clothes, sports car etc.

relative to me. I can't afford to do those things with a full time job.

fair enough
but i still don't consider it to be "seriously minted". i am very comfortably off, yes and because i work for it as bgb says, but i am definitely not my idea of minted - i don't even own a pony.

my definition of minted is the same as yours I think
and as I have said before, I think if people work hard and stuff then they deserve whatever they can get!
