Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

I feel like the huge range in the upper class (106k to 461k) is too large to lump everyone into a single group. A person who earns 115k a year has a completely different lifestyle than someone who earns 250k a year. Whereas the top and bottom incomes of the middle to lower classes are likely comparable in terms of life experience.

You are focusing on the income too much here... after certain point, there is more to it.

While you are right money wise... 106k could be entry level upper class (30 year old) v 450k end of career exec...

It is really a same guy, just different age.

People under estimate how much age impacts your income and assets, it makes sense tho.

Old geezer with life time of work will be wealthier inherently against everyone who aint a nepo baby.
