kidley   48 #205 Posted August 2, 2016 can some body explain this so called class "system" sir Richard Branson would talk to any body on the street and so would most of the people in his class what ever that is, the upper class Lords Barons etc etc i think would still talk to you with out looking down their nose. the only class difference in England now is snobbery, eg a working man/woman who thinks they are better than others.

Cyclone   10 #211 Posted August 2, 2016 I am also Elite.  I've looked at this survey before, if you put that you have a high income then I think it pops up as elite no matter what else you put.  Yep, just test it, put that you have a household income >100k, don't put anything else at all and it says "Elite"... Pretty simplistic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Robin-H   11 #212 Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) I am also Elite. I've looked at this survey before, if you put that you have a high income then I think it pops up as elite no matter what else you put.  Yep, just test it, put that you have a household income >100k, don't put anything else at all and it says "Elite"... Pretty simplistic.  Seems you are right. I thought you were wrong as I just tried it and got something difference (despite thinking I clicked the highest amounts for income and savings etc) but I must have clicked the wrong box. Tried again and yes it would seem whether or not you are classed as 'elite' depends entirely on income.

tinfoilhat   11 #216 Posted August 2, 2016 Have a go at defining "posh"..  Do you wear a flat cap? Do you or have you ever owned a whippet? Do you come back from work covered in coal dust? Do you eat bread and dripping?  If the answer to any of those is no you're an elietist Tory, thatcher loving posh boy.  Now battle posh boys!!!
