  • Scraping By (•): You've generally got a few weeks paid for in a local lodging house, though you don't eat very well. Whatever you own most likely travels with you, including heirlooms and the like.
  • Middle Class (••): You have a flat in a terraced building, probably, or a slightly larger place in a worse-off area.
  • Bourgeois (•••): You live in a townhouse or detached country home and chances are good that you belong to a social club of some sort, most likely affiliated with your church or neighborhood.
  • Well Off (••••): Clearly upper class, you have a lavish townhouse or a sprawling country estate.
  • Tremendously Affluent (•••••): An esteemed landowner with generations of accumulated wealth. You likely have multiple townhouses and estates throughout England and the continent. You are expected to demonstrate your wealth.
