What are the financial requirements to be considered "middle class?"
Dominic Morgan
Nolan Powell
pre-tax household income:
$100k/year rural
$120k/year lcol city
$150k/year mcol city
$200k/year hcol city
Isaiah Mitchell
fake metric.
can you just go to the bank and get a 7 figure loan
congrats you are rich
you cant
sorry you are poor
Isaiah Russell
The official definition is two thirds median household income to twice median household income.
Jack Smith
Here's another breakdown from usnews.
Joshua Flores
Yeah but under that definition, filling the country with haitians (what's actually happening) magically makes every white "middle class" or better, even if most live paycheck to paycheck.
Benjamin Cox
how many people per household?
Adam Wood
you can have terrible financial credibility and still be middle class.
Christian Stewart
4 or less
Colton Young
pointless numbers. Should be converted into some variable based on cost of living, like rich = 10x average 1 bedroom rent
Jayden Bennett
you complicate it.
there's only one simple requirement
> it gives me the most votes because most normies are that
Kayden Nelson
The number of people who live there. So if it's 2 parents and 10 kids it's all the income earned by those 12 people.
Jace Sullivan
That's retarded. A single person making $50k is going to have a higher standard of living than a family of 10 living on $50k
Easton Scott
Minimum these days is 100k. 150k for a family.
As others have said, wealth/net worth isn't really important because there are plenty of middle class people who are in cycles of perpetual debt, will leave nothing behind for their children except student loans and yet still can afford the middle class lifestyle.
Easton Martin
True not my definition
Brayden Peterson
>most live paycheck to paycheck.
Most people live paycheck to paycheck regardless of income because most people are bad with money
Joseph Fisher
have $500 to spare for qom and similar shitcoins of its caliber :^)
Jace Wright
Be white and have a car
Isaac Brooks
>He thinks the "middle class" is still a thing
Oh user..
Joshua Jackson
Middle class is psyop bullshit to get normies to buy shit and not become petty nobles. As such any idiot who isn't in actual poverty but isn't bum running into the aristocracy.
Ayden Diaz
There's no middle class.
You are either owner-class and profit from what you own (rent, stocks, interests, being an intermediary taking your cut just because), or you are working-class (having a job and getting paid for it so you can pay the bills).
Adam Lee
Although there is nuance here. For example American elites generally hate creating aristocratic offspring. As such many elites "work" to some degree or other for social dick waving purposes. In fact many Americans work for dick waving purposes taking their cut as welfare queens with corner offices vs the ghetto dweller version that's more popular to imagine.
