That’s the thing though. Beyond a certain point, people don’t care that much about being “better off.” If they have it all, they have it all, and they’re content. I don’t think they’re afraid either. Fear is mostly the burden of the working class.
I don’t think you have that many middle-class friends, judging by your opinion here. I could be totally off base on that presumption but I don’t understand how you can hold that view if you do. That would be my failing then.
Middle-class isn’t a month vacation every year anywhere they want. It isn’t even retiring early. It’s not getting the best version of everything. It still comes with cares concerns worries stresses challenges and a host of other afflictions that can almost always be solved by more money, just like everyone who is not as well off as the middle class.
It’s a certain amount of comfortable survival, enough to also do more than a few things just because you want to and you have the means, but it’s not a place that has no view of a higher place, it’s just not always having your feet in the muck.
