[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We don't have social classes here. Now you know.[/quote] Lol Yes, we do. While it’s not as clear cut as in other countries, the USA still has classes. An overly simplistic way to explain: -Blue collar vs white collar…but there’s a big gray area since many blue collar workers can amass a fortune and outpace many white collar professionals. To wit: my plumber lives in a nearly $2M home, owns vacation homes in his “home” country plus at the DE beaches, sends his kids to private school, and owns a portfolio of rentals that he flipped. If you saw him roll up in his truck, you’d never realize he’s so wealthy. (He told me he nets $1M/year.) -By neighborhood -By schools -By education (college/advanced degrees) -By country club(s) -By status Old money is a completely different animal. Truly old money status that has been sustained and grown over 4-5 generations is in its own class. [/quote]
