[quote=Anonymous]The responses here are nutty. People need to step outside of the DC bubble. Our HHI is almost 500K and we know for a fact that we are not middle class. We live in a 1.3 MM house, last week I bought lobster salad at $50 per pound. We have a target savings/investment rate and once we hit that we spend as we please. We've been able to do this since our HHI passed 250K. A big part of this is that we are not flashy people. Other than our house there is no indication that we are "wealthy". Meanwhile I have coworkers that make less money than I do and they drive Porches and Teslas and complain how they're barely scraping by. At some point its a choice. You can always outspend what you earn. Make good choices and then own your decisions. [/quote]
