I came up as elite which is bizarre since we don't even own our own house (nor even a car) and it said 97% of these own their own home! But then again maybe it's because, since we haven't yet put our savings towards a house so we appear to have a lot in the bank? Also I hardly entered any of the social thingys since I rarely go out since having kids. But we do go to museums etc quite a bit since we live in London and they are child friendly and free and often have loads of kiddie stuff on. If you lived in the country it probably wouldn't be very convenient to go to the theatre or museum, whereas for us we just pop on a tube or bus.

According to that, I'm a n Elite. Which one would presume means one should be turning one's nose up at all you commoners and be expecting an invitation for cucumber sandwiches with the queen.

Where as I'm actually in bed watching Geordie Shore re runs with Creme Eggs and tea. 'Tis a hard life for us Elite.

I'm a pauper too smileyfaces!

Strange because I've always been teased for being 'posh' because of my accent. I read the different categories and I think I'd put myself in emergent service worker.

I put that I knew a solicitor and an accountant, I was sure I would get some brownie points for that! X
