In Europe, you can have 0 net worth and be upper class, and be some lame hiphop artist earning 200M per year and still never be it, since you need to get born into it

You mean like the haughty retards who would rather burn in flames than stoop so low as to bend the knee? Basically unlike the subservient RLC cuks

Because in America, people who are so unsuccessful as to be paupers are not coddled and told that their titles make them important. If you're "upper class" with zero net worth, you are a pauper.

Check out Finnexus (FNX) if you are looking for low-risk investment with great returns because FNX tokens can be converted to USDT after the sale even if the price drops by 10 times

If you have zero net worth. What makes you upper class? Are you saying that Europe has a class system like India?

The way you behave primarily determines whether you are middle or working class in the uk. There are mannerisms, speech patterns, fashion, choice of entertainment etc endless unwritten rules that are near impossible to fake. It's like being the only sober guy at a party - other people will quickly notice you don't belong.
To make the transition from one class to another means completely reinventing yourself into a new version of normal, something which most people are extremely resistant to doing.

The American class system is based on race not titles.
1. Jews
2. Black Men
3. White Women
4. White Boomers
5. Hispanics
6. White Men
7. Black Women
8. Indians/Asians although this class is on the rise and will surpass white men in the next decade or two

Everything is true except the last part.
>since you need to get born into it
Upper class can be top doctors and accomplished scholars in important institutions, and important businessmen which are a pillar of their community. It's not the money that makes these people upper class, but their position which is a high achievement naturally brings some degree of wealth and recognition to them. If you are not born into the upper class you can obtain a high position in society by extraordinary effort and become upper class yourself, but you are competing with people who have a head start since birth so although it's possible it really is uncommon.

What good is ancien-regime upper-class status when that status is basically a fossil?
