When you hear the phrase “keeping up with the Joneses” what archetypal image of the Joneses pops for you, in terms of income, wealth, lifestyle, kids etc?
Ie who are your “Joneses” whether you actually try to keep up with them or disdain them?

No Joneses for me. But there are plenty of people I despise.
And a few I admire. But I don't aspire to be like them, because we each have our own destiny.

White family with married parents and three kids living in a beautiful house with a swimming pool. Somehow it’s always clean and tidy. Three nutritious and delicious meals are prepared every day. They have a new car that is quite expensive, and the kids go to the best schools.
