[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]upper middle class has more education (advanced degrees), more money and more refined tastes. if you meet all 3 criteria you are a good example/safely in that category. many people are borderline. like, a surgeon who makes a lot of money but listens to country music and eats at applebees vs. a low paying adjunct with a harvard phd etc.[/quote]

What is upper middle class music?[/quote]In my experience: Bluegrass! [/quote]

Absolutely.  It's amazing to see how the places that used to draw working class crowd are now overrun by hipsters.[/quote]

Oh yes. This is a trend too. I think there was a book about this. How the class tried to copy each other with kids names and the names became unpopular. [/quote]

there are many books about this, starting at least with thorstein veblen, if not earlier. lower classes imitate upper classes, therefore upper classes need to constantly update class signifiers. [/quote]
