[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m so tired of everyone saying they are middle class.  And then, everyone saying - No! You are not.

**** Let’s get to the bottom of this ****
What is Rich? When do you exit middle class?
What HHI do you have & what worries do you NOT have? 
Do you roll in your money?

Be proud. I’m listening. [/quote]

This feel right  :lol:

In truth, we make 400-500k and I still wouldn't put my early ES kids in private school. For us, 80k is too big a chunk post-tax when you consider we didn't come from money and are working hard to create a secure future for our family. So I view our friends and neighbors who choose private as "rich" and somehow separate from us when they are probably better defined as having different backgrounds and/or priorities. It's interesting to examine how we think about money and wealth. Honestly, we are rich. But it wouldn't take much to knock us back down to MC.[/quote]
