[quote=Anonymous]Class is not just about HHI, or even about net worth. It is a much larger social construct: educational background, cultural preferences in food, entertainment, music, art, parenting practices, expectations, knowledge of the wider world outside of your own home community, etc. To me, if someone was born and raised in an upper class environment, but fell upon hard times as an adult, I would still consider them as belonging to the "upper class" socially. Similarly, I would consider someone who had "made it big" from a modest background as upper class, even if as adults they have amassed a high net worth, but overtime, if their children and grandchildren are able maintain that position, then the future generations could be considered upper class.
