80,000 and 40,000 dual income. We're (least I WAS) still lower middleclass on the verge of being poor. They're suckers for my sister, paying her a full tuition to university and a sorority. I'm in community college having to pay my own, because they say I'm a boy. Yeah, I don't live with them for a reason. I even block their calls, ****ing jerks.

This sounds like you should qualify for quite a few scholarships and for a significant amount of Federal Aid/Grants.

OVER 9000! I'm dying to say what was on my W-2, simply because it was triple my gross salary from just 5 years ago, but it still seems unclassy to me :P

My parents together make about 200K per year, though it may have gone up recently (my mother got a different job and I don't know how well it pays relative to her previous one...)

Much to my chagrin and embarassment I have yet to exceed 40K. My father is living in Canada on a U.S. military retirement fund and my mother no long makes any money as she suffered a massive stroke a few years ago and is slowly checking out of this great game called life.

Under 100K, I'm not sure how much exactly. It's a good thing money doesn't buy happiness. :)

Well, it's true to a certain extent that people that make a certain base income are happier, and there is obviously a correlation between financial security and stress levels (just ask anyone who's unemployeed how they feel), but wealth does not guarantee success nor does poverty always result in unhappy people.

Psychological studies indicate that money and happiness are, however, correlated.

To a certain degree, yes. See my above post. Also, there may be some lurking variables (for instance, people who are more optimistic probably do better in life and thus make more money).

You are my **** hero! Nothing will ever top that!!

Oh, and I do not know. My dad is a security guard, but he invests and hides all of his money, but I do not interact with him too much. But he never wants for anything I know that - even with his frugal life. My mother was forced into retirement due to a disease when I was 16, or so, so she makes almost nothing. But coming out of college next year I should be pushing $40,000 or more at 22, which is not much, but I expect to increase rapidly.

You should really look into it. It will make your life a lot easier.
