The question is offensive. But I come from an excessively wealthy family... really, and shouldn't be discussing with any of you.

Class is not an object outside of programming... the peons.

Middle/Upper Middle class

Bachelor's degree - Job in IT plus investing/real estate on the side...

My wife and I could afford to retire, and did so. To me, none of that other stuff matters.

Well since according to a lot of CityData posters $250,000 a year isn't considered "rich", I would consider myself to be in the lower middle class, just above the poverty line. After all, I only make $50,000 a year and have about $100,000 in savings. Hopefully someday I'll come closer to that $250,000 a year middle-class lifestyle.

Class: At the moment, lower middle class (was middle class).

Where do you consider yourself on the political scale? I am a progressive democrat.

What is your level of education? I have a bachelor's degree.

I am just wondering since we hear all these stereotypes about people's political beliefs based on income and education...

Strictly middle class: retired, income, soem: we are conservative: hubby being more so than me. We both have bachelors degrees.
