[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When people talk about HHI, they're talking about gross, not net. So you're basically saying that you're doing fine as a single person making nearly 100k. Well, duh, I don't think anyone would find that hard. [/quote] Holy Shitballs, this. HHI is GROSS, not net. [b]So your HHI is actually about $100K. [/b] Get the terminology correct before you run around schooling everyone.[/quote] to be fair -- the title of the thread does say "after tax". [/quote] But op compared herself to $300k people claiming to be middle class, and $80k people claiming to feel poor. Those people are using gross numbers, and are also typically discussing family hhi, which includes kids, usually multiple, with childcare and such. To reference those numbers, at a minimum op should have used her gross number. [/quote]
