I don't know if that is true. I would say we are solidly middle class (our neighbors on our street include a paramedic, an elementary school teacher, a hospital receptionist, a paralegal, a yoga instructor, a non-profit office manager, etc.). My wife is a stay-at-home mother to our 7 children (though the 2 oldest are away at college) and hasn't had a paycheck since we were in college. We have 2 cars, a house with all the automated amenities, etc. I just work as a programmer making about $100k a year. After taxes, we live on about $4k a month.

- rimlicker 7y agoDoesn't want his wife to upstage his ability to humblebrag on internet forums about his salary.. gotta keep her tied up with umbilical cords
- nohuhu 7y agoWhen people ask me what my wife does for a living, I tell them she's working as a full time mom to our 4 kids. She likes that a lot more than being a "housewife". :)
- fallingfrog 7y agoOk, but as the median salary for an American citizen is $31,099 per year, you’re at least one, maybe two standard deviations above what a typical American makes.
