Sam Nichols Posted April 26, 2013 Report Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-22000973 It'll be interesting to see what my class rises to once I've completed my degree and I have a full time job, but for now I'm almost the lowest of the low Emergent service workers This class group is financially insecure, scoring low for savings and house value, but high for social and cultural factors.

Matthew62 Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Well that doesn't add up too well. The little synopsis at the end that says what sort of person you are was completely off and didn't describe me at all. I tried something out and put in all my details the same but just earning a little more each between me and my girlfriend and amazingly for just a small pay rise each our class group shot up. So here's hoping this time next year I might be a higher class! Fantastic test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Established Middle Class as well, apparently. I think that's got a lot to do with Hayley owning a property we don't live in though... I definitely don't feel established, even if my current abode is fairly middle class! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rojo Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) Very interesting seeing the difference between answering the questions based on purely personal income and situation or answering based on household facts (which is what they actually ask about)... One says Elite and one says emergent service workers... What a heap of sh**e. Edited April 29, 2013 by Rojo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
