Lower middle class kid to now a slightly upper middle class person here. Migrated from small towns to cities. I think this falls into majority category.
Wow! I don't experience even one of those points the author mentions. In fact quite the opposite. It is unsettling to feel even mildly rich or show the world that I am doing well. Maybe I am not in the majority after all. Or the article is so very rooted in western demography.
