That suggesting "$200k is squarely middle-class" is ridiculous.

It's not. Let's not pretend it is. "Ah jeeze $4M really ain't much money guys" is such a privileged, insane statement.

Make whatever you want to make. Shoot for $200k if that's your jam, but people making that and thinking "I'm just like everyone else! Life is a slog, isn't it? Having this income is nice I guess but it could be a lot more!" is just profoundly ignorant of how the vast majority of people, and the actual middle class, lives.

That's all. Get back in touch with reality a bit.
