Having next to zero income and filling out a survey saying "upper class" :troll:
If you're a college student with rich parents and no job
Apparently people earning less then $60000/PA aren't 'everyone' despite being the vast majority of people.
A better title would have been 'most rich people think they're middle class'
"classes" based on income doesn't make any sense. It especially doesn't make any sense in 10k increments.
people who arent taking the survey seriously. you have to account for those in any survey, that's why it's best to include a few question + answer combos that are so ridiculous the only way anyone would choose them is if they're not taking it seriously, so you can instantly throw out any responses which include those answers
that group is entirely folk punk bands and maoist third worldists
If I had to take a guess, mostly rich failchildren whose parents pay for everything that they actually need. Technically making $0 in cash income but still living an extremely wealthy life
maybe people who don't work/make an income because they have a lot of wealth? I didn't look at the survey so that's just a guess
People with that much money still make income on investments etc. It's probably just trolls.
Being lower middle/upper working sure af doesn't feel like it. Housing eats up everything. I'm running on 18 month old shoes, gotta wait till they're totally broken to justify an upgrade. Haven't bought clothes for like 3 years. Car 10 years old. I do get some takeout and tip very well, use high quality intoxicants, a few patreons, only luxuries in life and I still feel guilty about them. Not sure what this is about I'm in a weird place rn
Shoutout to the people making more than a $100k a year thinking they are Lower Class lmao.
Well, most people in the working class seem to identify as working class, so that's good
