LOL, I call BS, unless you're really trying to tell us someone whose DH makes $1.6 m/yr+ is hanging out on DCUM. YEAH RIGHT!

That would mark -- no kidding -- the third time this week I've noticed someone mess up their math by a power of ten on DCUM. Ladies, come on! Let's not be stereotypes!

I don't know whether this was a math mistake or not. But, I think it is weird to assume that someone would not hang out on DCUM just because DH earned a lot of money. I think it is likely that the husband is not hanging out on DCUM, as he is most likely spending a lot of time earning a lot of money, leaving the wife with free time. You don't know a lot of people that make a lot of money, do you? They aren't generally that different. |

I make a lot of money, as does DH, but we don't make $1m+. Most of the people I know that do, do not use the internet for entertainment (they have much more diverting things to do with their time and money). The richest person I know doesn't even know how to use a computer (and no, she is no old -- she literally just doesn't use one, which I suppose is a sign of the fact that she doesn't have to to earn money or to be entertained!). |

I know some that do and some that don't. I don't think that it is about the money. Money gives more opportunities, but it doesn't force people to take them. |

I am the one whose husband earns $16,120 for every pound I weigh. Yes, he makes about $2M per year. And we are rich (not afraid to admit it) but don't spend conspicuously. I think my friends and neighbors would be shocked to hear our HHI. I think of myself as normal - and I think of DCUM as a place for normal people. Mostly. |

This is (primarily) a parenting website. Why wouldn't people with HHI of $1mil+ not have parenting questions like everyone else? |

Only in DC would someone who makes nearly 500K have the balls to call themselves "upper middle." You are seriously deluded. |

I like it, too! I'll play. DH makes $2,720 for every pound I weigh. But I make $3,322 for every pound he weighs. I guess he needs to gain or I need to go on a diet so we equalize the per pound number! |

| DH makes 1170 for every pound I weigh. He makes a good salary, but I'm fat so he got a bargain rate on the poundage. |

2. State your profession or industry: Gov't manager, $135K 3. State what your husband's profession/industry and how much he makes: Consulting, $200K 4. State how would you classify yourself: Upper Middle 5. Feel free to state any grievances with the OP of this thread: None that I can think of! 6. My education: MS 7. His education: BS |
