[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even as the upper middle class group enjoy marginally better quality of life, their life style is similar and they can closely relate to other people in the middle class. [/quote]

I don't think the $250,000 doesn't get you very far" types can really relate to people in the actual middle class.[/quote]

Really? Really? Isn't that what the whole "doesn't get you very far" concept means? It doesn't get you very far, meaning you are still largely the same as those making $100k, just marginally better, not very far.

Understand? [/quote]

As someone who makes slightly under $100K, I shake my head at this.  I can not understand how $150K extra could only make a marginal difference, but I'm willing to accept the possibility that our lives are exactly the same.  How big is your apartment?  How many people do you share your bathroom with?  Does the fact that one of washers in the laundry room is still broken after 3 weeks annoy you as much as it annoys me?
