If "rich" were the correct translation of the story of the Rich Man, then in the Parable of the Talents the "rich man" who had 5 talents would have the most difficult time of winning his master's favor.  That is false, and "rich" is not the correct translation to describe the person in the story of the Rich Man.

Instead, the correct translation is "fully supplied," and using that definition ''all'' three of the recipients of talents are fully supplied and face a big challenge winning their master's favor.  They have to work hard and not be "idle misers."  Two act accordingly and do the equivalent of threading the eye of a needle, though much effort and some providential help.  The third acts like an idle miser, don't nothing and acting miserly towards what he does have.  Though the poorest, he goes to [[Hell]].
