ParticipantI guess my point that every here is missing is that ‘class’ is not solely determined by salary.
I know people who are from well-off families and work as middle school teachers making $125K in total. They are much better off than I as they have no student loans, parents bought them a house and cars, etc.
Class is determined more by net worth than by annual income.
My family makes almost $250K per year and we are definitely not rich.

ParticipantFirst off, you forgot taxes and payroll deductions – We bring home about 63% of gross so that turns 225K into $145K.
Rent – 3000*12=36,000
Daycare 2000*12=24,000
Cars 700*12 = 8,400 (includes insurance)
Gas 400*12 = 4,800
Groceries 1100*12= 13,200
Utilities 450*12= 5,400
Children 400*12 = 4,800 (Diapers, clothes, bottles, etc.)
Student Loans 800*12 = 9,600
Houshold Misc 250*12 – 3,000 (Gym, Haircut, Dry clean, etc)
IRA’s 833*12= 10,000
529 Plan 250*12= 3,000
Downpayment savings 1800*12 = 21,600The house I rent would cost $700K to buy. To save up 20% at my rate, it would take 6.5 years. Then my rent/mortgage payment would go up and consume the current savings level.
We are comfortable, not rich. We have no family assets to inherit and have worked for everything we have. That’s a lot different than getting things handed to you by a rich family.
Why should my hard work get taken away by Obama?
