Are you Middle Class?

[Ayahuasca]

You went to a private, but not boarding, school
You wish you could afford to send your children to private school
You do send your children to private, but not boarding, school.
Your parents went to university
You have a nice lawn
You have a nice lawn, with stripes
You think about house prices a lot
You holiday in Disney World for the children
Really you would like to holiday in France
You speak French, but very badly
You own an SUV on finance
You aspire to a second home by the sea, or in France
You would never wear a jumper with holes in it
You play golf
You know the annual ISA allowance
You don’t trust Boris
You have a professional career
You wonder whether you should pay off the mortgage sooner
You have a cleaning lady but not a maid
You used to aspire to a BMW but now they are so common
You worry about the green belt
You maximise your pension contributions
You shudder at the Daily Mail but read the Times.
Your favourite TV presenter is David Attenborough
You worry that your friends have more money than you
You keep getting toilet and loo mixed up
You don’t know whether to say sofa or settee
You don’t like to make a fuss

Defo a middleclasser!

I'm infinitely more a chav than middle class.

I suspect there will be more than one reader triggered by this list

I’m very middle class but can’t be arsed keeping up the pretentious nature of it,so I don’t.
You take me as you find me,if you don’t like it,tough.
Maybe it’s that attitude that makes me have so few friends.

It’s true however the list is funny.

I think it's a response to the "are you posh/a chav" threads.

I'd add "If anyone suggests you are middle class, you (want to) reply 'Upper middle class, actually'"

It is for those who didn’t make the grade in the ‘are you posh?’ thread but haven’t yet sunk to ‘are you a chav?’ levels.

Class is not dictated by money.

I scored low on both the posh and chav ones. Slightly higher here but still fairly low. I think I must be some sort of class refugee!

[ClaphamGT3]

It’s very middle class to obsess about class

[Sporky]

It used to be so simple. You were middle class if you had a degree and worked in one of the professions.

If it is, you've been taken for a ride.

I don't need to worry. They do.
