[quote=Anonymous]Agree with OP and this happens outside DCUM too. I know a woman who refers to herself as middle class and who often talks about challenges related to income. She and her DH used to both be Big Law but she now works a “passion” job making around 50k and he moved to government job. You’d think they were just scraping by. But they own multiple homes, have rental income, plus large 401ks and other investments from their time making significantly more. Plus family inheritance and funding (ie huge 529 contributions, cash infusions for vacations, home improvements, and other expenditures). But she’ll call herself middle class and act like she’s struggling because she thinks it helps her fit in at her job. I find it incredibly annoying and would respect her so much more if she just owned her situation.[/quote]
