[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't see upper class as something to aspire t.  Rather as something to avoid.

There are plenty of negative characteristics associated with upper class.[/quote]

Plebe attitude.

I was born middle class, am now upper middle class, but not threatened by the upper class as you seem to be. How do you avoid being upper class? just earn less?[/quote]

Class is much more complex than income.  You are still middle class.[/quote]

I know that. I'm upper middle class based on my educational level as well.[/quote]

You are born UMC. Are your parents UMC?[/quote]

Education level does not distinguish between middle, upper middle or upper class. It amazes me that educated people don't understand the basics of class. I guess my superior understanding/education in this area by your definition makes me upper class! Hilarious.[/quote]

PP here who asked if PP's parents are UMC, and I get you. One can be in the 1% and still be middle-class. But in the U.S., in the vernacular, we use class = income. We don't use it like it's used in the U.K., so people are easily confused. Hell, our politicians campaign on that entire premise.[/quote]
