[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous].Announcing that $12/hr is working class is pretty out of touch with the working class. That is what, give or take 26k a year? A hardworking working class person can easily make 100k a year in DC. As they should.[/quote] Absolutely. We pay our babysitter $12/hr. We pay our plumber $75/hr. If the OP thinks she's upper middle class, she should report on how much household help she has.[/quote] NP. I earn just a little more than $100K and I have a house cleaner and a lawn guy. Here, in DC. I have half a year's salary in savings, I save the max for retirement both 401K and a Roth, I take international vacations at least once a year, sometimes more depending. I don't care anything about what "class" I am in but to suggest that people can't live comfortably in this area on $100K is what is out of touch, which is what OP seems to be trying to say. [/quote]
