700k $ of assets or 30k $ income a year depending on your choice of metric.
Basically making a living in the west or owning decent amounts of stocks.
E: iirc, I didn't save the source sorry, you're welcome to try and figure it out yourself it if it bothers you but it's really the 0.01% that's the problem - just doesn't have the same ring to it.

If you knew the candle was fire then the meal was cooked a long time ago.
Challenge Mode : Play WoW like my disability has me play:
You will need two people, Brian MUST use the mouse for movement/looking and John MUST use the keyboard for casting, attacking, healing etc.
Briand and John share the same goal, same intentions - but they can't talk to each other, however they can react to each other's in game activities.
Now see how far Brian and John get in WoW.
Oh boo freaking hoo. Why is everyone so obsessed with the rich all the damn time? Someone will always have more than you...always. It took me a while, but I have a decent career, and I am supporting my family, and am on a great path to retire without worry....and Im fine with that. What else are we going to whine about?
Nope - it can't work. Want to know why:
You give a trillion dollars to the wealthiest - who aren't even spending the masses of wealth they already have, the money stagnates in their coffers.
You give a trillion dollars to the poorest - who can barely afford to eat, and almost of that money will be SPENT, in businesses and guess what - the rich people get their dosh and the poor people get to eat, educate themselves and get medical care and maybe even go on a holiday or something.

Needs:
1) Section 8 housing for low income families
2) Tuition assistance programs
3) Food stamps for single mothers
4) Charter schools for children in bad school systems
5) Children's healthcare insurance programs
Wants:
1) Brand new car
2) living in the BEST neighborhood
3) Money for sitting on your ass for 5 years
4) Complaining about material wants
Oh I forgot to mention
Everyone being angry and depressed at all this is a dumb loser for this simple reason
The poor are just as greedy as the rich
And you can bet if the positions were reversed, the exact same people bemoaning current wealth inequality would do the very same things rich people are doing now
We blame the banks for the 2008 financial crisis, but in the end it was the greed of people that caused it, it was the greed of ordinary people thinking getting mortgages to flip houses for profit was a normal thing to be doing when working at Wal-Mart
You want proof?
Bitcoin and cryptocurrency speculation -- a bigger bubble than any other in history -- all done without the involvement of banks or governments or elites, by ordinary not-rich people driven by human greed and get-rich-quick-envy
The moral of the story?
In life, like in nature, there's just winners and losers - so don't be a feminist SJW loser

Any university in the US that is not a small liberal arts college is going to have classes with 50+ students so there is almost no chance your professor will ever get to help you with anything beyond a few simple questions. TAs might help you but they aren't always helpful and they are also usually busy. Most professors don't have time to grade your paper in good enough detail to really help you either from my experience.
You can get a college degree's worth of knowledge in practically any field through the internet. Schools like MIT have put their entire curriculum online for free.
Just because you totally missed the point, doesn't make your incorrect point of view any more valid.
Be rational dude ... a little thinking and common sense can go a long way.
The blue line is the wealthy people getting richer, and the orange line is the majority of the people getting screwed over for them to do so.

I agree, and there is nothing wrong with that. Wants vs needs. Someone wanting a new computer doesnt equate to bashing the rich and how its their fault you dont have one, especially when the one you have is only 2 years old
Ha! I cant help to laugh at this. Wealthy yuppy larva getting scammed and played like us real people kinda put a smile on my face.

If anyone wants a free, practically complete understanding of graduate economics then here you go. Complete with homework and answer keys as well.
how is complaining a want? why would anyone want to have a reason to be miserable?
please elaborate on #3 as it is not specific enough.
i agree with #1
#2 is something i rarely hear people asking for just wishing about.
all in all your wants just seem like republican talking points that are caricatures of what you think poor people are like based off of outliers.
r.i.p. alleria. 1997-2017. blizzard ruined alleria forever. blizz assassinated alleria's character and appearance.
i will never forgive you for this blizzard.
You can watch lectures online. MIT has full lectures for practically every course they teach online for free.
What are you talking about? The wants are simply that, wants that people constantly complain about not having because the rich are keeping it from them, when in reality it doesn't even really matter anyways.
#2 - I am willing to help anyone who wants to help themselves, if you're busting your ass in college and cant afford it, you should be helped
#3 - Someone in a desperate situation, like a single mother or father who works multiple jobs trying to produce for a family should be helped, people become widows, people get fucked over, not their fault.
Im not sure that anything I said was a republican talking point lmao, have you listened to a lot of the rhetoric being spouted from some people? People literally crying about having a generation old iphone lmfao.
