[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well fwiw, I wouldn't say I am "obsessed" but I find the topic interesting. Primarily because I am a person who changed classes (maybe). Grew up poor, parents worked as a waitress and mechanic, barely got by, I'm a first generation college graduate, then I got a master's degree. Husband grew up the same way then through luck was involved in an IPO and made millions. Of course that was life changing. It kind of felt a little bit like winning the lottery. But I don't feel that the "social" part of our class changed that much.

The word is "social class" right? So I think it's interesting to question how much of it is social and how much is economic.[/quote]

I'd guess you are insecure and obsessed.  I too grew up with working class parents and am not concerned or fascinated with class other than the watching the trainwreck of unhappiness I see on here. I know I can provide for my family and that my kids have it better than I had it (though not sure they will be as successful because they haven't had to work like I did) and that to me is a all I need for validstion.

I think many of you need therapy on now to impeove your self esteem and self worth.  Best of luck [/quote]

DP here.  I agree with both of you.  I could see how first PP could com across as a real arsehole, and be proud of it (wrongly).

I also agree with second PP that the trainwreck of unhappiness is prevalent in this area.  Look at how people act - like animals - those aren't happy people. [/quote]
