I'm just wondering, what is the main indicator(s) of economic well-being?
Average salary?
Per Capita GDP?
Happiness index?
Average house price?
Inflation?
This car is slightly related to economics.

Per Country? Or just per individual?
An individual with slightly above average or more in income would surely be well off.
But as a nation.. well, I'd say Gini would be a good way to measure that, but I guess you'd have to compare that with HDI as well then.

I'm assuming you're asking about this on a macro scale, more in line with a city or country than an individual. If you don't mind, why do you ask?
Inflation : Determined by the Fed in response to other factors. This is kept at a level that balances the obvious dangers of high inflation with the need to constantly lower relative wages.
Home prices : These tend to be determined by the ability/desire of buyers to secure financing, which in a healthy economy inversely related to interest rates. Again, set by the Fed.
Happiness Index: Too subjective
Per Capita GDP : Probably the best measure on this list. As with most economic principles, the trends are more important than the number. Increasing is nearly always good in this case.
Average Salary : This is the second best indicator. It's more subject to skewing by outliers than GDP, and it doesn't account for an area's cost of living.

I'd say the ability to buy your 15 year old a $30,000 sports car is a good place to start

When you don't pay attention to prices at restaurants, and think "oh that's too much."

not having to stress about purchases... Not needing financial aid... Getting expensive cars for free.... Not having to really work for anything....

Depends on you philosophy. I believe the government defines it as combined or solo salary. I believe the line for economic aid from the government is currently around 30k. Could be totally wrong.
