Well, basically being born here is sort of a silver spoon in hand.
Compared to most of my mates, I am fairly low down the ladder. Lost a few years due to rampant alcoholism and that.
But I've picked myself up again, and things aren't as bad as they could've been.

A car, a flat that I own and a decent income isn't too bad.

QuoteYou got: Upper Class
You're pretty rich, you're pretty important, and you don't see why anybody should have a problem with that. Money's there to be spent, not talked about, and you don't see why you should be ashamed about living life the way you want to live it - or why everybody thinks you've got it easy. If you were a vehicle, you would be a luxury yacht, sailing on a sea of the oppressed masses.

I'm not rich, but I would like a yacht to sail over the oppressed masses.

Same but with opposite Buzzfeed results. Of course the upper class and lower working class have a few things in common. Like not giving a fuck what other people think.

I got "New Affluent Workers".  The description is so far wrong for me that I think I might have answered something incorrectly.

You're definitely buying the first round, moneybags :cheers:

I would go with buzzfeed being more accurate. Bbc gave me elite while buzzfeed gave me aspirational middle class.

The problem with the BBC test is translating incomes and savings from other countries into British ones.

As a member of the buzzfeed working class I look forward to murdering you in your bed when the revolution comes.

Well I used my hopefully soon to be British salary and my savings are but a pittance. :weep:

Isn't Buzzfeed American?  Why are they using British stuff?

I believe they have offices in at least the UK, India and Australia now. They regularly feature content for locals of those areas.
