[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would these 2 households be the same "class" (assuming similar family size, family backgrounds etc.) 1. Household 1: 1 $250K earner, 1 SAHM or SAHD 2. Household 2: 2 earners about $125K each You could say they're the same in that their earnings are the same. But you could also argue HH1 is "higher" because that earner probably has an especially prestigious job and can afford to forego the second income and still be UMC. [/quote] DCUM calls $250k the working poor. [/quote] "UMC" DCUM poster: Our household income is 1.1 million but we don't feel upper class. We cook our own meals and DH even does the shopping himself at Whole Foods. We have a minivan and live in a 2500 foot 4-bedroom colonial home in Bethesda. We don't have a private jet. We live very normally. [/quote]
