Everyone is trying to attain the good life. And for most people, the good life means having dollars and lots of them. According to most sociologists, to be in the upper class (this is bottom upper) top income earning households you need to bring home 200K annually and if we are judging by net worth, you need a household net worth of $2 million to be considered upper class although this author believes that number is a little low especially if you are factoring in the value of the primary residence.
