I live in a rural commuter village, in a beautiful cottage, ride horses, go camping and hiking, play the violin and piano, own an old ish Land Rover, (it’s always dirty due to living rurally/horses). We are a v ‘outdoorsy’ family. We own two working spaniels. DH and I WFH (most of the time). Our household income is £150k+. DH is in management, I work in finance. We are v well travelled. We have a holiday home in France. Classical music is our music of choice. House is full of books, mostly science and history. We value savings, our pensions, and experiences over getting into debt to have the latest brands.
This may seem like a pointless brag. It isn’t (I mean who cares anyway, I could be lying and you don’t know me so what would I get out of a. bragging to randoms and b. lying).
The point is that DH and I are solidly WC, despite all of the above MN MC ‘markers’! Neither went to uni, our parents are WC, and most importantly, we both called our grandma ‘Nan’! We are what we are and I find it laughable that some posters insist that any activity or hobby that’s considered healthful / wholesome / intellectual must be MC. So blinkered, and frankly, so stupid to believe such nonsense. There is nothing wrong with being WC! I’d much rather own who I am than be aspiring MC, like many of those on the first thread.
