They say "your taxes" and "supports", not just "taxes" or "supported". Thus, lies.

Everyone wants to claim to be in the "middle class". But if you're making $200,000 a year, that's getting up there. House prices are not equivalent to salaries; from what I've seen most people buy houses that cost two or three times their annual salary. (I'm sure the bank loan people have a formula, and I'm sure it's not 1:1.)

What's that about your sigil?

Ah, I'll bite on that one :)

As for the middle-class thing, I mean you have to make that much to purchase a house there. My parent's house, originally purchased at (I think) $260,000 nine years ago, is worth over $500,000 now. New houses in their area are worth more than that, and the people who live there consider themselves "upper-middle class".

But you're right. Definitely not 1:1. If anything, it's closer to 4:1, and it depends on your debt-income ratio at the time, too.

As for the sigil, I can't exactly tell you what it's for, but if you look at it closely in reference to current events, you might be able to figure it out. But trying to figure it out would partially dismantle it's ability to work.

It is, by far, the most simple sigil I've ever created, but possibly the most effective.
