Left out the most important factor...overall WEALTH!
Income is a measure...but overall not even the most important measure of where one “fits” into a financial society...unfortunately!
In fact, income may not allone even be a factor that can help you change your level /place or position in a monetary society....”your income may never be high enough to change your place”...that’s why, of course, money and wealth is not everything in life nor is it the fruit that brings you true happiness.
Here is an article from earlier this month that focuses on wealth.

I noticed that. Very strange!
Reminded me of Warren Buffett saying his Scty. wages were higher than his were.
Trump can say the same, since he donates his salary.
Wealth class tells more than income class.
