OP here.

i wouldn't take a bite out of a cow while it was still alive though.

No one said that, faggot.

You are why no one likes vegans.

>>7371474
No-one here would pay 1000$ to eat at noma because no-one here has 1000$, nor would any of the people here be able to dress well enough to be permitted inside. Hell, you little shitnicks wouldn't even know how to reserve a table.

that's not a lobster, and obviously it won't be the exact same way but it's probably still fucking horrible.

No. I've heard from people who have been, you are paying for the experience and wow factor. the food is presented in creative and interesting ways. it's more than about taste. not worth it to me.

>>7371561
no it is not in kroner. also, you have to get on a waiting list to get a reservation like a year in advance.

The only people who blow money like that on shitty gimmick food are idiots. They are either trying to impress some slag or fill that emptiness that just won't go away.

Also: as far as any of this overly expensive gimmick shit goes, raw ant-crusted prawns are the worst I've seen yet.

>Lower middle class starts at about 45k a year.
I know the super-rich like to constantly redefine poverty to distract people from the fact that they are stealing all the wealth, but can we just accept that the official definition of "poverty" is wrong, and that actual poverty is $50k or below?

I'm pretty sure $11,700 is my grocery, restaurant, and alcohol budget for the year. That doesn't get into keeping a roof over my head, clothes, transport, etc.

Lower middle class starts around $75k.

Middle middle is $150k

Upper middle is in the $200 range, and above $300 is where you start being called "rich".

>>7371824
Maybe what defines poverty is the standard of living in your area. A family in rural Tennessee can make $75k and have 2 or more cars, own their house and help put their kids through college but they'd be living with significantly less in NYC or Boston.

>>7371824
Seconding this.

Poverty tier- below 30k
Low income tier- 30k-75k
Lower middle class tier- 75k-120k
Middle class tier- 120k-200k
Upper middle class tier- 200k-300k
Upper class tier- 300k-500k
Actually starting to be rich tier- 500k-1m
Rich tier- 1m+

>>7371851

Is this pr person or household? A norwegian would like to know

>>7371854
A four person household, I assume. 75k a year for one person isn't exactly 'low income'.

>>7371851
Household income is $110k and this is spot on.

Sounds like a lot, but after taxes and healthcare, we're down to about $65k. Add 401k, home and car insurance, small mortgage, food, living expenses, and everything else, I'm left with about$300 of disposable income.

Shitty house and cars, but bills are paid and have a few bucks at the end of the month. Thats lower middle in my eyes.

I couldn't imagine having kids or debt at this income though.

>>7371851

by definition middle class should be in the middle. 70% of US households never make above $65k.

depends where you live though. in any major city $100k is not that much really.

I can tell you that the cost of living in california is twice to three times as high as the cost of living in fucking kentucky

>>7371851
This is absolutely wrong from the start.

Poverty tier- below 60k
Low income tier- 50k-100k
Lower middle class tier- 100k-150k
Middle class tier- 150k-300k
Upper middle class tier- 300k-500k
Upper class tier- 500k-1m
Actually starting to be rich tier- 1m-10m
Rich tier- 10m+

This is correct.

>>7372974

If you shit away money yes. But that is more than enough to keep you and another afloat. Rent will be like 1k a month MAX so you have 8k to last you the year with food and bills. Even after taxes you are living pcomfy.

Ambiguous answer. They have a response to negative stimuli, but don't have the same nervous system that vertebrates do, nor an emotional response that more advanced lifeforms react upon.

>>7371533
Oh, I have the money.
But why would I spend it on something stupid?
I'm going to build a house in a couple years and it'll all be paid for up front.

I've only eaten at like 3 very fancy places in my life, but never at a Michelin starred restaurant. I'd like to one day though.

>>7373118

I mean yeah I could totally afford a ferrari, I'd just have to not eat, not pay rent, never pay my bills... oh wait I guess that means I can't actually afford a ferrari, I was just pretending to be retarded.

>>7371851
>>7371824

Given that your supposed "middle class" and upwards is effecively maybe less than 5% of the US population. I think by definition that distribution is wrong.

Given the mean wage is about 30000$ a year, actual middle class is in the range around 40000$-80000$.

>>7371865

You need to sort your financial life out. If that's actually the case you're really fucking shit at managing your money. A comfy life for 3 people can be had for 40k$ easy, 30-35k$ if you're any good at managing money. Also enjoy never ever retiring.

>>7372833

>Settled on a shitty job hand coding emails
>Made the company $76 million last year ... no raise.
>After taxes, I make $18/hr

If you think you're that poorly compensated start your own buisness, nobody is forcing you to keep working for that company. Or maybe just wisen up to the fact that there's a lot more going on in your company than you.

I get that you're mad that I can manage my finances and you can't. But you really should take it as encuragement that there's a better life out there for you, if you just get some simple money management skills.
You should start with cancelling your cable, biking to work or at least downsizing your car.

>>7371824
LOL

And here I pulled in $15k last year, eat comfortably, have a good pc that i spend all day playing vidya on, spend about $50/week on booze/drugs, and pay $800/month on rent and electric. It makes me want to scream when I hear about single people making $30+ and just not having enjoyable lives. If I had even $5k to throw around extra I'd have a fucking blast for a long time.

>>7371474
I'd likely decline even if someone else or a company offered to pay for it. I just don't find the hoity toit shit appealing.

It's kind of fun when doing over 150k usd / yr for simple coding. It's nice to not have to live hand to mouth. You'll probably find out someday.

>>7373348
Even more fun when you're young and doing that. It gives you time to not only reflect on things but also to take girlfriends to places and check things out, even on a whim.

And that's nothing compared to others doing orders of magnitude more.

>>7373127
I could do it about once a week if I wanted to live in a shitty apartment forever. But that wouldn't be much fun.

>>7373367
is coding not mindnumbing to learn, slavish, and bad for your health? can't picture an aristocrat doing such a thing. every 'nerdy' professional i've met knew nothing about high culture (has a wikipedia article)

>>7373376
It does take some work but I was doing it since I was a little kid so never thought it slavish at all. I thought it fun and still do.

It has nothing to do with culture or not. A lot has to do with honesty and trust, perhaps culture is part of that.

The middle class was never supposed to be a majority or even a plurality.

The key defining characteristic of the middle class is that the middle class accumulates capital to pass on to their children. How many american households do that?
