      Maybe he’s referring to “middle-class” in the original, British sense. I.e. lawyers and other professionals.

        30k is still a big whack of cash for a professional. They might have to send their kids to a state school!

      Yeah that is silly esp as he himself wrote an article on how there are certain bands of experience you know and understand and how much there is outside of it. He is so bad at applying his own words to his own reasoning. Yeah sure the middleclass has another 300k to spare on their kids (I’m rounding the 0.5 kid up, no half kids today).
