  Nope, that’s blatantly not true. I’m a middle class, I don’t think I’ll ever be rich. Sure, some people dream of being the next billionaires, but most of middle class doesn’t.

    Fair enough. How about, middle class is just poor people who don’t know they’re poor.

      Could be. Though for me it was always about how you live:

      • lower class: has to work, barely survives
      • middle class: has to work, survives comfortably
      • upper class: doesn’t have to work to survive

        The only real struggle there is between the upper class and everyone else. The concept of the middle class doesn’t really do anything but divide workers.

      Nah, I know I’m poor. I suggest the cut off is between purchasing economy and comfort+ seats for a flight. /s
