True but I don't know any other word for it :(

Aristocrat is the safest claim if you don't have more specific information, because in modern parlance it basically just refers to a rich person who gets money independent of working or at a wildly inflated rate relative to their labor. Nobility refers to a sort of caste with hereditary titles to land, etc. Kulaks are basically rich-ish peasants, who own enough to mainly have other peasants work their land, and these kulaks were becoming petite-bourgeois (the nearest equivalent of kulaks in capitalism) as Russia started to modernize.

Aristocrat works I think? Or in polish "arystokratyczny"

"Arystokrata/Arystokratka" if you're talking about a person

Sounds correct but these people already see it as something to brag about so zwierzę ssące krew/pijawka (bloodsucker) - I am not sure if it's correct because I got the word searching online.
