30. I agree

but I always have a hard time with these threads because if you are making the median or less 97,000 seems like a whole lot of money. There is a VERY big difference between a high earned income and wealth. It would be difficult to support a "middle class" lifestyle and actually save enough to ever become "wealthy" on $97,000/year. In Ohio, two teachers earning the MEDIAN teacher's wage in Ohio earn $94,000/year. Do people here believe that a family with two income earners employed as elementary or high school teachers are "wealthy"?
