Spring fuss? That's rich! (4-2-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

well-to-do

'rich' is the definition.
('well-to-do' can be similar in meaning to 'rich')

'spring fuss?' is the subsidiary indication.
'spring' becomes 'well' (I've seen this before).
'fuss?' becomes 'todo' (I've seen this in other clues).
'well'+'todo'='welltodo'

'that's' is the link.

(Other definitions for well-to-do that I've seen before include "Financially comfortable" , "Comfortably off" , "Affluent" , "Fairly wealthy" , "Fairly rich, prosperous" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
