I consider myself middle class, but on the lower end of that qualitative term. I’m single with no children and make around $50,000 a year. This is a shot of me at my desk at work. Without a job I wouldn’t be middle class.

There’s a lot happening in the world.  Through it all, Marketplace is here for you. 

You rely on Marketplace to break down the world’s events and tell you how it affects you in a fact-based, approachable way. We rely on your financial support to keep making that possible. 

Your donation today powers the independent journalism that you rely on. For just $5/month, you can help sustain Marketplace so we can keep reporting on the things that matter to you.
