    When I was just a baby, we were lower middle class. When I was under 8 years old, I grew up middle class, and when we moved when I was almost nine to where we now live, comfortably upper middle class.

    It's not just a matter of money, you know. You can grow up very rich in financial terms but very poor in terms of what is known as "cultural capital".

    So, financially I grew up middle class. In terms of cultural capital, I was upper class. That's very common among the children of people like writers, artists, university professors, etc. We're the people who end up attending Ivy League schools on financial aid. I attended two of them.

    I grew up in upper class in Rio De Janeiro Brazil. And, now I live in Miami and consider myself upper class still because of my income.

    I grew up extreme lower class and now I would consider myself middle class based on income and luxuries.

    upper-middle class... I wouldn't say I'm living in a mansion or anything, so I'm not upper. I'm not lower, either because my house is bigger than average.

    Lower class. Extremely lower class. I had to work most of my childhood to bring money to the family.
