stinking rich
Disgustingly well off
Stinking rich describes someone who has an enormous amount of money—so much that it's almost offensive or obscene.
The intensifier stinking suggests excess to the point of being distasteful, as if the wealth were so abundant it practically reeks.
Her family is stinking rich; they own half the downtown.
The phrase carries a hint of envy or disapproval, implying the person's fortune is vulgar or undeserved.
