I am kind of curious to see how other's on SeN are living. Are you living in a wealthy family? Or, are you living in a middle class to lower class residence?

I think it would be a neat thing. I have always been curious to see how other's live.

When I was born, it was into a lower middle class family. We had a fairly small, 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom house to live in. I lived in Oklahoma City until I was about 7 when we moved in with my mom's mother (in Muskogee) because my mom got a new job in Tahlequah and she had to be closer. Her house was okay. We'd saved up enough money to rent a bigger house on the countryside. However, my mom's job choice didn't prove to be as good as we'd hoped and we had to move into a little log cabin. My dad tried to get his own business going, but he died before he could officially launch it. When I was 14, we used the life insurance money to move back to Oklahoma City so mom could get her old job back. She made some friends in the right places, as well as a few good investments, so now we live pretty comfortably. My mom makes almost $100K a year and we live in a fairly big suburban house.

In short, we've gone from lower middle class --> middle class --> borderline lower class --> upper middle class in my lifetime. I should run for office. I can relate to the fairly well off and the poor alike.

I am considered a rich boy in korea... my mum owns a business that earns good amount of money. But, in here, I am considered rather middle class... And because my parent have good money, I am spoiled, although im trying to get rid of my spoiledness...

I was raised in Vietnam. I left my country when I was 11, I am 14 now.

*In Vietnam I would become a Vietcong
*In U.S. I would become a G.I.

middle class. If we sold our house and bought a new one we'd be upper middle class. I live up in the country and wished i lived in the suburbs.

I'd have to say middle class. Both my parents have decent jobs and we have a pretty nice house so it's pretty good.

I'm middle class. I don't have much luxeries, and my family has problems, not to mention I have a baby sister. My dad makes ~ 50,000 and my mother makes nothing. I usually don't have much new stuff, most of the money we have goes to mortgage or the bills.

We used to have a 3 floor house, but now we rent the bottom floor to get more money.

We don't have any loans to pay back anymore and we got enough money to buy some luxury items.
I'm living in a two story red wooden house, two bathrooms, three bedrooms (one of them for guests)+kitchen, living room etc.
We got three cars, two Volvos, one 15 years old, the other about 3 years old (I get the oldest one when I'm 18 biggrin.gif). My dad also got a blue Dodge Dart Custom 1970 model smile.gif

Upper Middle Class

I have luxuries like Cable internet, but I know the value of a dollar. I'm not spoiled, but we can afford things if needed.

I guess upper middle? We can afford to have luxuriouse things but we just don't seem the need for it. I am in no way spoiled, infact I'm scared to ask my parents to buy things tongue.gif. Only time I can be spoiled is when my grandparents come over but they live overseas so they don't come often. About once every 3 years.

Probobly lower class, I live in a crappy building in Scarborough, Toronto. The water goes out about once every two weeks, theres urine and shiz in the stairways and elevators, not to mention it smells like smoke most of the time. I could go on and on but I'm pretty sure you guys get the idea.

Btw, there IS a satellite picture of my building, but for privacy reasons, I won't be posting it.

Wolf, I'm pretty sure the Battle.net thing was a joke, or maybe they can afford the internet to use it.

Privacy reasons on SEN?

Middle-Middle Class. Maybe upper-middle.

Lower class.
My dad built our house, and we have to repair it sometimes, our roof leaks, and I get most of my clothes from value village (Which is a pretty stylish place to go shopping.) I've built a lot of stuff for myself.

The one thing we spend money on, other than essentials, is entertainment systems, we have a good tv and computer. Other than that though, theres so much fun that can be had from other peoples junk. cool1.gif

My first 16 years was exactly like rantent's. But we went lower class to middle class off and on a couple times, but was mostly lower class. When I was 16, my mom had got this nice house I'm currently living in. Nice middle class home. But dad wanted to live with us again. (whenever he lives with us, we go back down to lower class) So on the 5th or 6th week he was here, I got tired of his abusive drinking and cussed him out and told him to farking leave. He hasn't bothered me in 3 years.
