[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middle class people do not own $1.8m houses. Nor do they spend $24,000 on preschool. Or $2,000 a month on food.

What a stupid article. [/quote]

Insulting to the other 90% to claim otherwise, but what do you expect from a website called “marketwatch” when most of us don’t own stocks. Or even have any savings. https://www.cnbc.com/2017/06/19/heres-how-many-americans-have-nothing-at-all-in-savings.html[/quote]

You don’t have any retirement savings? You are not middle class.[/quote]

Pretty sad then that half of America isn’t middleclass. [/quote]

They are lower class/LMC. Those with a few million are middle class. 10s of millions, UMC.  100s of millions, upper class. It is a skewed curve. Everyone wants it to be a perfect bell curve amd it’s not.[/quote]

People with a few million dollars are not middle class, no matter how you draw the curve.[/quote]

Proof please?  You definitely need a few million in the bank if you want a middle class retirement.  [/quote]

The vast majority of this country will never have a few million in the bank for retirement.  So are we saying there is basically no middle class?  [/quote]
