Not to a big extent.

There have been a few times when I thought a friend was rich because of some particular things and it turned out they weren't rich.

For example, I had this friend who lived in a really big Victorian house at least 3 stories tall, with front and back staircases and a tower. I assumed her family was rich, but later realized this house was in what was, at the time, a super shitty neighborhood and so they probably got it for cheap. They had a security system and a huge dog. None of my other friends lived in houses with security systems and their dogs were little cuddly things. There was a lot about the decor in this house that was outdated or tired-looking because they didn't have the money to update it yet.

Earlier, I had a friend who lived in a much smaller house in a middle-income neighborhood, but her parents seemed to give her anything she wanted: all the toys, a waterbed bunk bed, and an in-ground pool that took up basically the whole back yard (must have made the house difficult to sell - this was the Upper Midwest, not somewhere like California or Arizona where a pool is more like a necessity). Her dad never seemed to have a job, though. Her mom was a dental hygienist and I hear they make good money, but I think the degree to which they were spoiling their daughter surely would have outstripped the mother's income when you also factor in mortgage and groceries and everything. They moved away suddenly, so I don't know what became of her or their financial situation.
