[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I have HHI of $180k a year and a combined net worth of $550k. I consider us upper middle class financially, although our lifestyle is pretty solidly middle class (home/location choice, how much we travel, where we shop, etc). [/quote] You are sold middle class in this area. [/quote] Yeah, we live in an area where the median income is 59k for the metro area and for our particular town is 76k. Nationally, the 70th percentle median net worth for our age is $33k. So while our income and net worth isn't impressive by DCUM standards, I think when you look at the big picture - we are probably upper middle class. And I'm glad we"re content living solidly middle class (house is right in line with median house value, used cars, not.a lot of exotic travel, etc). DH grew up nearly in poverty, and I grew up middle class with parents who bootstrapped their way from blue collar.[/quote]
