Talk amongst yourselves...

[Reality Man]

Many variables determine the answer to the middle class question.

Who is wealthier...someone who makes 30,000 a year but has no kids and inherited a paid of residence or a someone who has 3 kids and a spouse who makes 175,000 a year with two kids going to college. Factor in the taxes.

Thoughts?

Reading that article made my head hurt

What the hell is HER POINT??? Yes, there will be people in your neighborhood who make more $$$ than you: this is true if you live in Palo Alto, CA or the backwoods of Appalachia West Virginia. That is life.


Anyway, she isn't "middle class" ----- her parents are "middle class." She's just riding on her parent's coattails until she goes out and proves her own value to society. This article isn't a good start in proving said value.
