Based on which definition?

I feel like by most commonly used definitions I would be. About half my income (before taxes) goes into savings, my position is considered management, I make between 75%-200% of median national income, I have a graduate degree.

I don't make half that rate though.

Not sure I think middle class is a useful method of classification though, but still curious why that specific number.

Picked my area and 29K puts you in the middle class, which is like $13/hr, and its pretty close to the national average for COL.

  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
