Every sentence needs a verb and a noun. Click on the Grammarly Handbook link at the bottom of the page. There is a lot of information there about verbs and nouns.

The verb in this sentence is 'is'. 'That' is a pronoun, 'very' is an adverb, 'wealthy' is an adjective, 'inside' 'out' are prepositions, 'and' is a conjunction. There are no nouns. This doesn't make sense as a sentence by itself. Perhaps it's a clause that is at the end of an independent clause.

I'm back to disagreeing with Lewis. Wouldn't "inside" and "out" be adverbs telling the location of "wealthy"?
You're probably right, Jeff, but in my defense, I'm running a fever.
Or maybe nouns, defining the location. I'm confused.
Hope the fever's better. All three of my kids have some nasty little bug. I might use that one tomorrow morning. I haven't called in for a sub yet this year.
