<p>“He should rob his friend. Then he’ll be the lower-upper-middle class friend.
Solved!”</p>
<p>whatever, I should rob you!</p>
<p>Psh. I don’t have any money.
You can rob me after I rob the OP after he robs his friend. </p>
<p>And then I’m robbing you.</p>
<p>How 'bout we just gang up and rob Donald? No person should have that much money. He needs to share.</p>
<p>Deal. I claim the toupee.</p>
<p>I’ve got dibs on his shoes.</p>
<p>I don’t want any perspective. Then I’d have feel, and love and crap. </p>
<p>That completely goes against my evil mastermind plot to takeover the world.</p>
<p>But then you’d get to send those little Valentine cards to everyone. Loving is fun. Especially when free candy is involved.</p>
<p>Location also matters… you can get a really nice house for $600,000 in Kansas but it will only get you a small shack near a California beach.</p>

<p>Name one evil world dictator that was… loving?</p>

<p>Hitler smelled like onions.</p>
<p>agreed
in my area you cant even buy a proper house with 600k (unless you count condo as a house)
so if op’s friend lives in my area, he would be below average interms of wealth of parents</p>
<p>Genghis khan loved his wives, until one reportedly killed him, in an unmentionable manner. =/</p>
<p>lol billionaire.</p>
<p>one of my goals in life is actually to destroy the oil industry (large part of the middle east) by making oil worthless.</p>
<p>not that i don’t like the middle east or anything.</p>
<p>The worth of your house depends on where you live. My house isn’t worth that much because I live in Ohio. Our neighbor’s house, which is a bit nicer than mine, recently sold for just over 400K. If you live in a certain suburb, you have to pay a lot more than that. My mother inherited 3 properties in DC (my grandparents didn’t believe in selling property) and they’re worth a ton because of where they are, even though the houses are smaller/not as nice as ours. She also inherited a house in rural Virginia that is worth almost nothing because of where it is (and because it’s tiny). My mother’s cousin, who lives in Seattle, near Bill Gates, was shocked by how little our house cost. Price is sort of meaningless without location.</p>
<p>It sounds like you’re jeal of your friend and what him to know that you’re well off too. Legit, I’ve never cared a whit my friend’s houses were worth, and they don’t care either. It’s the people who aren’t my friends who go back to school and tell other people that we have golden chandeliers or whatever in our living room. Just skip to a different subject and eventually your friend will get the message.</p>
<p>I just don’t see why it bothers you.</p>
<p>Anyway I’m sitting her like 0.o because everyone’s like “600k isn’t that much for a house.” My house cost 150k.</p>
<p>^^ Obviously price ranges for houses differ from area to area.</p>
<p>And obviously most people on CC live in larger cities and suburbs.</p>
<p>All of you who think 600,000 for a house is middle class need a trip into perspective land. We just built a new house for $225,000. It’s 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, 2500 sq. feet, ranch style with an unfinished basement and we are middle class. $600,000 houses are NOT middle class. My family’s household income is around $60,000/year and we work 7 days a week (my dad owns his own business).</p>
<p>PlattsburgLoser - if you live in a 1.5 million dollar house, you ARE rich. Doesn’t matter what neighborhood you live in…1.5 million is a lot of house. If your parents could afford to throw down that type of scratch, you have no business saying you aren’t wealthy.</p>
<p>Sure…if you live in a suburb that is full of houses over 5 million and your house is worth 1.5…then compared to the stuck up uppity snobs that live in the 5 million dollar houses, you guys are low-mid class.</p>
<p>People that live in those types of houses probably haven’t done a day of hard work in their lives. By hard work, I don’t mean fretting over stocks or making a sales pitch to your clients…I’m talking about actual physical work. And by physical work, I don’t mean going out of the air conditioning to tell the hired work how you want the flowers cut and which direction you want the lawn mowed.</p>
<p>^^ The cost also depends on location</p>
