Your concept of middle class, wealth and finances are in question because you have repeatedly claimed that owning a $140k yacht makes you wealthy and excludes you from the middle class.
$140k is a lot of money for most people but for someone that is middle class, ie their disposable income is 30% of their income, it is potentially affordable.
Someone making $150k/year is potentially middle class, depending on their housing and living costs. If that person can put 30% of their post tax income towards an interest like yachting they could easily afford a $140k yacht.
Like I said, your understanding of wealth is lacking.
Luxury cars are defined solely for taxation purposes.
Having a couple of million in assets is still middle class. A union worker can build that sort of wealth over a lifetime.
You probably aren’t middle class given your limited views on some rather modest assets.
That is ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous.
Millionaires are not middle class.
You think a skilled working couple can’t accrue a couple million in assets over their working life?
Well that explains a lot. You’re bad with money.
I think “millionaire” has literally meant “rich person” for a very long time and I’m not sure why you keep making this personal.
