It depends on how your assets are invested.
If you have the bulk of your money in stocks and bonds, you should be way ahead of 2008. I certainly am.
If you are relying on the value of your house and your savings account at the bank, then you are probably not doing very well.
And if you don’t own a house or having savings (lots of Americans), you are screwed. I don’t believe the middle-class has grown since Obama moved into the WH.
The article admits that the middle class is doing poorly but the rich are richer. It’s spin. It always is.
What assets?
