[quote=Anonymous]I have wondered this too. I’d never heard the term before reading it on DCUM. Maybe I’m part stiver. Grew up LMC, now top 5% just due to working my way up. Live in a hot neighborhood that is often discussed here. But l don’t give a hoot about moving up socially, no interest in country clubs or getting my kid in the right school except for academic reasons. My kid’s school had many people with generational wealth and l don’t really fit in with them, but l don’t try to cause l really don’t care about the fund raising auction and cotillion - l was kinda shocked people actually still do that. Does a striver volunteer for the auction and take up tennis or whatever the fancy school SAHMs are doing - but then how could they also hold down a real job? So, striver definition is unclear to me.
