Well-off

房委會有意收緊公屋富戶（well-off tenants）的12個月搬遷期限，以防止富戶於搬遷限期前轉移資產以再符合公屋資格。

形容詞well-off解「富有的、有錢的」，即是rich。例如，Most students of this school come from well-off families.（這所學校的大部分學生來自富裕家庭。）This is a safe and well-off neighbourhood.（這是一個安全而且富裕的社區。）

Be well off for something可以指「擁有大量……的」（have a lot of something）或者「充足的」（have enough of something）。例如，London and Paris are both well off for museums and good restaurants.（倫敦和巴黎都有很多博物館和好吃的餐廳。）This village is well off for rivers and hills.（這個村莊依山傍水。）I want to move to a city which is well off for parks.（我想搬到有很多公園的城市。）

中文「知足」可以繙譯為know when you are well off。例句︰Stop complaining about the flat；you just don't know when you are well off.（不要抱怨房子了，你根本就不知足。）It's important to be grateful and know when you are well off.（感恩和知足很重要。）
