On: I fixed a tractor using John Deere's self-repair service. Farmers aren't sold

I would not say $1-$2k/mo extra income counts as a huge amount richer. It’s like 58th percentile by family income. I don’t really think it makes sense to call solidly middle class income rich in any sense…

It’s 25% richer. That’s huge amount. Most people, if given a 25% income boost, could make a lot of quality of life changes.
