Middle class is not rich by definition.

kingkawn | karma 3475 | avg karma 1.85 · | 2013-10-04 22:13:43+00:00

Not being among the richest people you know does not make you middle class.

Middle class does not mean median income.

rms | karma 22600 | avg karma 3.32 · | 2008-12-25 03:42:30

You have different definitions of middle class.

What do you consider middle class? That term is notoriously ill-defined.

omonra | karma 1010 | avg karma 1.43 · | 2015-12-29 03:22:38+00:00

You are confusing middle income and middle class, they are not the same.

That doesn’t meet any definition of lower middle class I’ve ever seen.

t-writescode | karma 4701 | avg karma 2.76 · | 2022-05-05 21:48:15

Sorry, but isn’t that part of the definition of middle class?

IgorPartola | karma 19474 | avg karma 3.23 · | 2013-10-02 16:13:18+00:00

> rich middle class people

That is an oxymoron. By definition, middle class is in the middle, not rich.

"Middle class" doesn't actually mean anything.

jprinzo | karma 0 | avg karma 0.0 · | 2014-02-09 08:42:31

What's a middle class?

monocasa | karma 27236 | avg karma 2.94 · | 2016-08-17 20:15:20

Define "middle class".

em-bee | karma 7577 | avg karma 1.36 · | 2021-08-06 13:58:53

i would not consider someone who can spend $100 on average in an afternoon to be middle class.

omg_ketchup | karma 322 | avg karma 3.35 · | 2018-10-03 14:03:51+00:00

Middle class is really defined on what you can get for your money, not a raw dollar amount. Quality of life and all that.

redwoolf | karma 362 | avg karma 3.04 · | 2024-06-21 04:01:08

You missed the point. There is no “middle class.” There is the proletariat and bourgeoisie.

opportune | karma 14424 | avg karma 3.95 · | 2019-04-22 15:31:29

I wouldn't really call that middle class then, but maybe

watwut | karma 13879 | avg karma 1.1 · | 2021-02-13 11:15:59

Aren't those people middle class by definition? What you describe here is not poor at all.

Judgmentality | karma 4725 | avg karma 3.74 · | 2021-06-15 15:28:04+00:00

What is your definition of middle class?

apatters | karma 4515 | avg karma 5.75 · | 2021-01-29 01:25:54+00:00

Oh come on, there is no definition of middle class anywhere that includes someone with $29M in liquid assets.

devilbunny | karma 934 | avg karma 1.32 · | 2024-06-27 16:48:04

The ones I’m talking about are definitely not middle class.
