Working class, middle class, or upper class?

Just for the sake of this poll I've cobbled, I mean carefully crafted, the following rough definitions from the t'internet:

Working Class:
The social group that consists of people who earn little money, often being paid only for the hours or days that they work, and who usually do
manual work or industrial work.

Middle Class:
The social group between the upper and working classes, including professional and business people and their families.
Consists of people well-educated people, such as doctors, lawyers, and teachers, who have good jobs and are not poor, but are not very rich.

Upper Class:
The group of people who have the highest position and the most social and economic influence in a society, especially the aristocracy.
"it is important that the children of the upper class attend the ‘right’ school".
