My family owns sizable ranch property in Texas. We aren't by any means "rich" but we are considered fairly wealthy, and I have a lot of friends and know a lot of people who have mansions. Every one owns a microwave, lol. Houses even come with it sometimes. Even rich people enjoy the snacks that are only meant for microwaves, like popcorn. Actually, popcorn is big for rich people, because of home theatres and such.
