- wyre 2y agoThat is absolutely not the same thing as GP is mentioning and you know it. >Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.
- nec4b 2y agoAll I know is a lot of people owning property here and there without being some upper middle class. You don't seem to understand that a lot of people even if they have low income have the desire and time and are hard working to slowly build something, which in 30 years of time becomes what you call a vacation home. I guess you are not used to manual work and think is impossible to do large things by yourself.

- skyyler 2y agosmall cabin in the woods is whatever renting out property you own as a means of income is the upper middle class part.
- nec4b 2y agoI know a lot of people who inherited some small place from a relative and they rent it out to supplement their income and aren't anywhere near upper middle class. What is you definition of upper middle class?
- skyyler 2y agoI don't believe "middle class" is anything but a psychological game. You either have to sell your labour to someone else or you don't. The concept of a "middle class" seems to just make half of the working class think they're better than the other half.
