[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know if it’s me being a cheap Asian, but I consider myself UMC ($300k) and barely do any of the things listed on this thread. Vacation home? Fancy private schools? Luxe travel with young kids? HA. About the only thing I did was buy a beautiful home in a pricey suburb and save aggressively to pay for college and a nest egg.[/quote] Agree. We have HHI of just above 300K. We live in a smaller house in a good close-in neighborhood with good public schools. Kids have activities, camps and sports, but are not overscheduled. Weekly housecleaners, occasional maid who helps with ironing and cooking. We travel three times a year as a family (once or twice internationally). We drive Toyotas. No country clubs, ponies, nannies, vacation homes with our income. Many would consider it a UMC income. I think income is just one of class components (education, values, pastime, friends/associations are other components).[/quote]
