[quote=Anonymous]I haven't read the entire thread, but to answer your question about 300k or 600k HHI people saying they feel poor, I'll just say that as your income goes up, expenses typically go up. And expenses add up. If you have 2-3 kids in private schools and need to pay for braces, music lessons, sports, family vacations, and the mortgage/cleaning/maintenance on a 1.5-2m house, I can see how these high HHI folks can say they feel poor. I'm nowhere near that HHI, but understand the mindset because I'm sure that while my SIL and BIL think I am "rich," in the DC area I "only" live in a 750k house and am watching many people my age buy 1.1m+.
