Salaries and class - is this accurate?

[Super Sonic]

Class defined by income? Not accurate imo.

Assuming class is still a thing, I don't believe there is any correlation between it and earnings

My thoughts too, the friend who shared this with me said its built from the ONS data.

This. I've always seen it around how people act and behave, not their income. Although there will inevitably be a level of correlation.

Many self employed tradespeople are upper class then?

No offence but… non

Was adamant it was correct due to salary bandings lol

Money doesn't buy class, never has done, never will, class comes from breeding stock.

In every other country it is. We're a very strange country with limited social mobility. No wonder our lowest quartile is one of the lowest in Europe.

The ONS has data on everyone's class? I'd be interested to see that if it exists.

Think it was extrapolated/designed from the data. Obv no class is shown on there.

I was in class 1A when I was 11. That's probably recorded somewhere

This is about the OP's sixth thread on this theme. It's starting to look unhealthy.

You like these bullst threads don't you bot.

FWIW, I'm at best lower class, income well off the scale you posted, but as you've been told, individual income is not a measure.

The British obsession with class and money and old money/new money is absolutely weird and pathetic.
