What is the “real middle class”?

(compiled from shuimuran column)

and

do you think your monthly salary is tens of thousands / year, and your annual income is hundreds of thousands of middle class? If you are not a local or rich second generation, you are a real loser compared with the members of the public security team (local people) in the first tier cities, or the local uncle and even the cleaning aunt who watch the factory. They are the real local heroes.

,

, ,

(landless farmers become “rich people” to drive luxury cars as cleaners),

,

,

and

I’ll tell you a story, let you know what is a low-key, mysterious and blind native tyrant.

and

just came to the company this morning. They were turning on the computer. The company’s cleaning aunt mysteriously approached me: Mr. X, I have something I don’t understand. I want to ask you. Do you know if it will delay you?

me: no delay, you say. Aunt

and

: I want to build another house for 600000 yuan. I only have 300000 cash. I want to mortgage a building for 300000 yuan. Do you think it’s worthwhile?

and

I (surprised): how much is the interest on the loan?

and

Auntie: I don’t know. But for three years, the interest is 80000 loose.

and

I (my heart sank): the interest is not high, reasonable, but do you have the ability to repay?

and

aunty: Yes. Now I have two buildings for rent of more than 20000 per month. I have another building in Zhongcun, Panyu (in Guangzhou) ready to rent.

and

I (inner collapse): that’s OK, you can borrow! Aunt

and

: Thank you very much, Mr. X. then I’m going to work.

and

looked at the background of continuing to sweep the floor. I fell into a deep thought……..

,

,

and

OK, so the question is, which is the real middle class, the sweeping aunt and the office white-collar worker with a monthly salary of 30000? Before

and

, there were Huawei men who were unemployed with housing loans in Shenzhen. Now, the sweeping aunts in Panyu, Guangzhou are all wonderful flowers of this era.

and

fans replied, “I think if from the material point of view, Auntie is middle class.”. Auntie owns several sets of real estate. Her work is not just an accessory to her. She can do it or not. The white-collar workers who enter 30000 a month can only be regarded as senior workers. Labor is decisive to them and they have to work.

and

so please remember: you work to meet material needs, while others work to meet spiritual needs.

and

according to Maslow’s demand principle, you are the bottom, others are the top.

and

are the living reality and helplessness!

,

,

and

so even if you bought a house in the early years and owned the so-called millions of assets, your life still needs to go to bed late and get up early, and you still have the anxiety in your heart.

and

for those white-collar workers who work in senior office buildings, they are really “middle class”.

and

hold that the real middle class should be those who have lived a decent and dignified life. Mencius said: those who have constant property have perseverance. It means that only those who have stable property and life guarantee can maintain good moral quality. Guan Zhong said: the granary is solid and knows the etiquette, and the clothing and food are sufficient to know the honor and disgrace. It means that only those who do not worry about food and clothing can understand what is etiquette and honor.

and

are relatively independent in personality and economy. They have certain taste but not luxury. They have certain purchasing power but not extravagance. A large number of middle class constitute the diversified demand of the society, stimulate the domestic economic demand, promote the increase of the added value of products, and break the vicious circle of “low profit and high sales”.

and

, however, are only the ideal “middle class”. We all expect them to be the mainstay of society. In reality, however, there are very few real middle classes. Look around: it’s either the people who enjoy their success, the upstarts created by demolition / listing, or the losers who look bright.

and

finally need to sublimate this question:

and

are the idle sweeping aunts and office white-collar workers with a monthly salary of 30000. Who is the loser? Who is the middle class? Who has made great contribution to the society? When can we only talk about contribution and value no matter our origin?
