Apparently, there is one phrase that people claim immediately reveals if someone has a lot of money in their bank account.
To be honest, there are probably some more obvious signs someone is rich - whether it be the car they are driving around or the clothes they are wearing.
But there is reportedly one single phrase that is a giveaway if the swanky car and expensive clothes wasn't obvious anyway.
The discussion surrounding this phrase came about on Reddit, and it's fair to say most of the internet is in agreement of one particular word.

So, it began with a Redditor asking: "What’s a phrase somebody may say that indirectly indicates that they’re wealthy?"
The word 'comfortable' seemed to come up a lot - and while it may seem someone may be downplaying their wealth with this response, Reddit users reckon that certain person is in fact rich.
"We aren't super rich, but we are comfortable," one Reddit user quipped.

A second added: "We're comfortable. Any mention of where they 'summer' and mentioning money in terms of 'family' money."
While a third recalled their own experience, stating: "God, I love my sister to the ends of the earth, but her saying that f*cking gets me deep down.
"Like in one breath, she's minimizing how much we're struggling being 'ok' while at the same time downplaying how much her being "comfortable" is not 'comfortable', it's doing beyond what I can ever hope for.
"I know she's not being malicious, I know she didn't grow up with a silver spoon in her mouth, that her life has struggles of its own, but damn if it doesn't gall me- even though I don't want it to."

Apparently, a further way you can tell if someone has money is if they have a resting 'rich face' or 'poor face'.
We've all heard of a resting 'b*tch face' - but a recent study found people make judgements about if you're 'rich' or 'poor' just from the shape of your face.
The study conducted by researchers from the University of Glasgow found that faces deemed 'rich' were also considered to be more trustworthy, with chiselled features, raised brows and rosy cheeks among other characteristics.

Faces considered 'poor' on the other hand were found to have lowered eyebrows, shorter chins, downturned mouths and cooler skin tones, making them appear cold and untrustworthy.
Lead author of the study Dr Thora Bjornsdottir said: "People who are perceived to be of high or low social class are also often judged as having advantageous or unfavourable traits, respectively.
"Such judgements are formed even just from facial appearance, and this can have substantial consequences, including disadvantaging those who are perceived to be of lower social class.
"The stereotypes we hold bias our perceptions.

"Our impressions of other people can lead to particular advantages or disadvantages for them."
