To me "middle class lifestyle" means no debts other than mortgage, a place to call your own, and a car. With very heavy emphasis on "no debts". Car can be just about any decent car, doesn't even have to be new. Anybody can get a loan for a fancy car, so it no longer means what it used to. That's "middle class".
- dsfyu404ed 7y agoI agree with you but I think a lot of people have a definition of middle class that includes whatever Toyota 4Bagger Reddit is fawning over and a few of the designer whatever's that the Instagram influencers are shilling (i.e. a few "nice things") and excludes things like Walmart jeans and any lawnmower that you have to push yourself. You can do all that on middle class money, but you can't do all that and raise your kids in a good school district and pay down your student loans, etc. etc.
