Perhaps it is the demographic on this board, but I struggle with a definition of middle class that is making over $250,000 per year. Maybe that is the upper middle, I don't know. Isn't the median wage in the US around $50k? If $250k is the cutoff for the top 5% (just guessing at that figure) then that is a pretty broad middle.
