[quote=Anonymous]I am about to make some gross generalizations. I think that most higher earning households - think 200k - are probably not living beyond their means. As a PP pointed out, most wealthier people in this area are going to tend toward financial savviness. I think most of the people that I suspect/know of living beyond their means are solidly middle class, just trying to keep up with the Joneses or something. -BFF who loves shopping, buys anything, etc - but has ZERO saved for retirement. And apparently is quite fine with that. -relatives who constantly flaunt how much the husband makes, and say things like "It doesn't make sense for DW to work because that would be taking a job away from a poor person (no really, they say that)", take expensive vacations, etc - but have recently mentioned needing to pay down cc debt and have to ask mom and dad to help them buy their kids' Christmas presents.[/quote]
