Oh it's massively flawed. Try earning less than £10k a year but having a £500k+ house and over £100k in savings. Makes you working class apparently.

So you earn £100k+ a year but have no savings and you rent a house. You don't know anyone and your only interest is playing video games. But you're in the elite class.

There are scrap dealers who earn £100k+ a year. Are they in an elite social class?
