You lack perspective on how truly wealthy the .0001% are if you think 302k is worth consideration. $250k to a million are the supposed "upper middle-class" that deluded redditors think their parents belong to.

Ohio. Born and raised there.. Couldnt handle the liberals/homeless/cost of living so i bailed on seattle.

Is this city infested with liberals? Im a 2008 liberal so slightly right leaning i guess in todays climate. Not racist but i also dont hate myself for being white, dont want illegals pouring in, think blacks need to fix their own shit, and love the 1st and 2nd ammendments. Will i get along with people?

>NASHVILLE, TN - Nashville is the priciest place to live in Tennessee, according to the Economic Policy Institute. The organization recently released its 2018 family budget calculator that estimates how costly it is to live in each of America's 611 metro areas and 3,142 counties.

>The group estimates a family of two adults and two children in Nashville would need to earn a combined $79,228 per year — or $6,602 a month — to live comfortably.

>Tennessee has not voted for a Democratic presidential nominee since 1996. In 2012, Republican nominee Mitt Romney won the state by a margin of more than twenty points, due to the unpopularity of the Obama administration in the conservative state.

Where does this number come from? Why do you consider this the cutoff for upper class? Out of the approximately 320 million people in America your description would include only the richest 320 people. At that point this is a group too small to be considered a social class unto itself.

only partners make anywhere close to that and they have no reason to work with a consultant
it takes 4 years just to break 6 figures in big 4. it's not upper class work.

I’d like to have a cock in me at all times (except maybe shower times). Dildos aren’t gay enough, it needs to he the real deal to meet my boner quotas. Cumming for me is not super important, just that i am always being penetrated my another man.

This. Its about when you make too much money for the government to not tax the fuck out of you, but not enough to not really feel that youre being taxed to oblivion. Its like 40-45% if you make over 250k. Absolutely disgusting.
