Firstly, what is upper-class? Many people think that upper-class just means people who are very rich - well, they are, but a different kind of rich than people who tend to buy luxury cars and clothes. According to Investopedia, a person who holds the highest position and rank in society is referred to as upper-class. In the social order, these individuals are regarded as the wealthiest and are situated above the working and middle classes.
So while rich people are easy to spot from their flaunting of their wealth, upper-class people usually tend to be less noticeable. But there are quite a few things that make you realize that you are probably on a slightly different level.
One Reddit user started a discussion online asking folks to share what in their opinion screams ‘I’m upper-class’. People online listed quite a few different things, varying from the way they speak, dress or act. But what would you say shows that a person is upper-class? Share your thoughts below!

I’ve recently crossed the threshold.
It’s being able to pay for convenience. Skip a line? Yes. One or two steps above general admission/sitting? Yes. Grocery delivery? Of course.

Being totally unaware of the cost of common items. I remember an interview with Bill Gates years ago and he hadn’t purchased groceries in so long he had zero clue what things cost. I remember they asked him the cost of a box of instant rice and he guessed $20 I think.
