Is that $125k plus as some here say or is it less?
Depends on how you manage money. I have seen people live middle
class
at $50k and others broke at $125K.
There is more to being middle class than what you make. It is also
about attitude and self dicipline.
I agree with that. The most "broke" people I know make over $100k but
they spend borrowed money like they make a million.
Yep. My little sister is like that. When life was good with two good
jobs they leveraged up to the 9's. We told them, now is the time to
solidify that wealth and pay off debt, not create more of it.
Now getting close to 50, and a huge mortgage on a dump when the last
recession hit. Set her back 30 years financially. But it is all our
fault. Typical liberal screwup will be working for a long time yet.

No. It's her fault. But, feel free to blame the gov't (or liberals or
the
Ghost of Christmas Past). The bottom line is that she screwed up. It
happens.
She blames me because I didn't screw up like she did! Stupid POS. And
she blames C/conservatives as they should bail her out.
It happens a lot.
Raising kids liberally for example, they learn little of conservative
dicipline. Then when 25 or so, one loser job after anotehr they fail to
cope and do suicide.
This depression goes far beyond just the mechanics of government tax,
banking and corruption bailouts, the liberalism has become a disease
that
is hurting people big time.
As when uncle Obama runs out of cash or hasn't gotten around to you, you
will be one disappointed liberal loser. A conservative self starter has
a
huge advantage over a entitlist liberal at the moment, but the liberal
wants to steal it.

Maybe it is your fault. You're the older brother. Keep on ranting about
Obama. I'm sure someone inside your empty head cares.
It was years ago now since I saw the little slug. Had her over for dinner
with our mother, and after dinner I snapped when she grabbed our limited
income 75 year old mothers purse to pilfer money.
I simply said "Mom, I am sorry, I can't watch this any longer. J-------
please get the frac out of this house you Liberal touting blood sucking
immoral POS. Mom shouldn't have to put up with purse raiding and your
blood sucking 'poor me' screw up attitude any longer".
She went off in a fluff, haven't seen her since which suits me fine.
So I guess so. I wasn't will to be abused by a freeloader, and didn't
like the idea of her freeloading on her elderly Mom.
But not my fault. I can't control her, for if I owned her as a slave, I
would ahve it beaten right out of her hide.

Wow... you come from quite a family. I feel bad for you now.
Don't. I rose above it. You are your own limitation to life. You
don't know the 1/4 of it, I could write a book on it.
