120k or more. Probably depends on location.
Location matters, in Seattle a household income of 120k wouldn't be just middle class. 200-300k would be upper-middle.

I think that's what the video is implying. Even though you grew up modestly (as did I, from a trailer to a 900 sq ft. raised ranch), we have bettered ourselves and elevated class. Now that we have elevated our class, we will do what we can to help people like us. It ends up being a bunch of class climbers like us, (through education and sacrifice) that help each other out, and not helping out lower class folks. At least that's what I get from it.For clarity, I did not receive any hookups from anyone I know. I certainly intend to try to hook up people I know when I can, though.
The fallacies contained in the last 45 seconds of that video were positively cringeworthy. Almost certainly deliberate too. That guy can go fuck himself.
My intention is to help lower class folks become class climbers, though. Most of my family/friends are not well off. I was a lower class folk when people welcomed me with open arms because of my positive attitude.I think that's what the video is implying.

I recently watched this video and it makes some good points. It is often the upper middle class rigging things through their community. They control it so it suits the needs of themselves and their families. Real rich people like Bezos and Gates don't need to rig shit. These upper middle class people prevent upward mobility of those below them systematically. The author calls them "dream hoarders".

58 grand salaries for a husband and wife, especially with a few kids, is not "upper" even away from high rent cities
The salaries being thrown around in here are well above the median. See, you just prove the point of the video. You are denying your privilege. You guys are getting all defensive.
It’s pretty good in small town Nebraska. Omaha not by a long shot.
The video isnt talking about median - it said UPPER middle class. And 117k aint it, not even in tural America.
