I don't have an answer for the question but I remember watching a series of recorded interviews with Americans from all walks of life and all described themselves as middle class, from the poorest to the wealthiest.
- JSDave 8y agoI have ~50k/year of passive income. I'm definitely not in the same class as people with ~50mil/year passive income.
- cthaeh 8y ago50mil/year passive income puts u at the billionaire level. Obviously they are not going to describe themselves middle class. I do believe the commenter is referring to people making 200-1000k+ and still calling themselves middle class.
- JSDave 8y agoMy point is that people making 200k-1000k are closer to middle class than billionaires. So it makes sense to me why they don't group themselves with the billionaires. Anyways, I think the answer is just based on how you want to define middle and upper class.
