I thought this was an entertaining way to rank class in the US, though I do have to say it dates from the 80's so some of these things may not relate. I fall into "middle class". Our living room, got props for wood floors, 10 foot ceilings, fireplace, curtains, stacks of books on floor overflowing bookshelf. and our dwarf meye lemon tree, "Dinged" on upright piano, new oriental carpet (our worn one was disposed of when a pet essentially died on it), hanging artwork of my husband and sister, and family photos. Both hubby and sister have shown their work, with my hubby in particular shown in a museum, but are not "internationally recognized". Not sure how should I should rate the collection of records and vintage record player (no stereo).
Now, just need to get myself an obelisk and perhaps a subscription to Paris Match or Hudson review.
