Class: Where Do You Fall Out?

The Times is running a series of articles on "class" in America. To get some idea of where you stand in the pantheon of American "class", go to:

How Class Works - New York Times

You may possibly find this depressing, but I should think you might at least find it interesting.

Hi James, I took this quiz and posted the results on my blog .. I thought you might be interested to know. By the way, what are your numbers for this quiz?

Here are my numbers for this:

Occupation: 71st percentile
Education: 97th percentile
Income: 84th percentile
Wealth: 40th percentile
Average: 73rd percentile

I guess that puts me in the upper middle class --- I guess I should feel more privileged than I do, but oh well, life does go on.

I am also in the top 5th, except for wealth, which is a little below. I guess I am "nouveau" class, or a daughter of the bourgoisie, and damn proud of it
