What is Middle Class?

[firstdown]

Well I'm done with work and I'm. Going to get in my middle class car, drive to my middle class home, smack my wife on her middle class a$$, kiss my middle class baby, call my daughter at her middle class college, drink some middle class beer, hit the sack in my middle class bed and wake up with a first class hangover.

Yes, I do. You earn peanuts (5% match after first 3 months) but at least you are earning something. I enrolled a month and half ago and I have saved up $50 or so thus far. Nothing special but it'll probably come in hand Christmas time.

They match your savings 100% for the first 3 months so that's $100 match right there in my case. Not bad eh?

Thanks, saden. I noticed the max they will match you during the first 3 months is $250. As long as there are no drawbacks that I'm missing, I think I'll sign up. Like you said, peanuts but good for things like Christmas or Redskin SB parties.

The thing is when a persons income rises they typically spend or buy more and they are not any more wealthy than before. But if your income rises and you continue living frugally thats when your "wealth" increases. For anyone that is looking for an interesting read, The Millionaire Next Door, goes into greater detail.
