This is to test the hypothesis that every atlasian meets at least 3/4 adjectives in the phrase "young rich white liberal".

Definitions are largely subjective but consider the guidelines below if uncertain:

young is below 30 years old
rich is coming from a family with a household income that was above average for their geographic area, or making such an income on your own
white is that you are not visibly a minority
liberal is more like the European or academic use of the term than the contemporary American use of it

I'm white, young, and white. I'm not rich, but I think my family has been living larger than most middle class Americans (ironically, we never lived large and this has more to do with their own decline than it has with our finances. Maybe they all shouldn't of built those McMansions.)

Edit: Also a liberal in the historic sense of the term, not the American version.

I am a young white liberal. I'm not employed and my parents make around Waukesha County average ($75K), so I'm going to say not rich as I myself don't make money (besides gifts).

Young, rich, not white (only one so far), not really comfortable being described as liberal but sufficiently inculcated in that worldview that saying "not liberal" would be dishonest.

(yes)

All four. I'm still shocked by the fact that my parents make >$100,000 a year combined.

Above average income = Rich ?

I fit everything except the liberal part I guess.

I'm young and by American standards "liberal" but not white or rich.

That's a rather broad definition of "rich".

it's to counter the distinctly american notion that no matter how wealthy you are you're definitely just "middle class"

Anyone who has to sell their labor (or whose parents have to sell their labor) is not rich.

Indeed. Anyone who (or whose family) makes more money than average in a Western country could indeed be considered rich.

Yeah, but that definition goes way off in the other direction. How on earth is the 55th percentile rich? That's only about $60k/year. A teacher and a receptionist would be "rich" Tongue
