All depends where you live and what circles you travel in. |

I would say that is high middle to upper class. Most people make under $100k. |

That would be high / upper class. Salary doesn't determine if you are rich. Your debt-to-income ratio determines that. I know a doctor that makes 1 million a year and he lives paycheck to paycheck. |

I think this would be upper class. |

Guess that would depend on where you live and what the cost of living is there.
Where I am from, that is rich and I would give just about anything to make that kind of money! |

That depends on how your parents manage and invest their money. That salary could put them in anything from dead broke to wealthy regardless if they're "humble". |

I personally would consider them Rich. The true American "average" seems to be between $40,000. and $80,000. a year. |

My husband and I and our 14 year old son would be more than comfortable with that salary. |

That qualifies as upper middle class, but your family may have liabilities that you aren't aware of, like a mortgage on your home, a lease on a car or time-share, etc.
Having money doesn't make you spoiled - not appreciating your good fortune would. |

In the US, "average" is right around $45-46,000 a year. That should help put Dad's salary in perspective.
There is nothing wrong with being "spoiled", so long as you realize it! |

Its not RICH, but its certainly very well off.
My household makes less than $50,000 per year...but we aren't extravagant types, either. |

that depends on one's debt & financial investments for tax purpose. if they owe more than they make & can't make the payment, then thats a problem. but if they live off on less than they make, then thats a good thing. |

The average in America is around $30,000 per capita |

Well, I think you should be in the upper class category...but if you aren't comfortable up there...you can send me some of your family's money and move down to the average/middle class group!!

upper class. I think better get your parents pay for your college so that you can save money in the future. |

That definitely is in the upper income bracket. They are fortunate. People make it on way less than that because they have to. Be thankful, which I KNOW you are by the way you worded your question... |

If you're talking U.S. $ than thats a lot of lettuce. No matter where you live. |

for a single parent that is not middle class! That would be upper class
PS
***the median income of an american family of 3 is $48,500 according to the U.S. Bankruptcy court*** |

I live in the adirondacks in upstate ny. My mother makes around 45k a year. We live in a beautiful 5BR house with 2 bathrooms and a very nice large yard. The house goes for around 120 thousand. Combined with my father thats just under 100k a year. If thats just what your dad is making, I suggest he put you through college and you save up the money for your future. |

sorry, but you do sound spoiled. kinda like your bragging...... |

Its not selfish, my family makes the exact same amount. It completely depends on where you live. We own a nice house in the suburbs, and two vacation homes, so I guess were upper class; probably more the lowish end versus the extremely rich end though. And your only spoiled if you don't appreciate what you have. |
