What income do you think a couple needs to have to maintain a middle class lifestyle?

I know this depends where in the country you live, but just a ballpark figure.

    A couple, I would say $45,000 to $60,000 minimum depending on the area, and that excludes NYC and much of California. But a more comfortable lifestyle beyond the minimum I think takes about $70,000.
