I would think that the approach to gauge what class you belong to is your net worth. Your lifestyle is a factor of so many things. It's not a good gauge

Give it some time and he will plant a vegetable patch, grow some maize and sweet potatoes. Probably demolish the perimeter wall, park his VX through the wall and sell the same produce from the boot of his vehicle!

Class definitions using Time Horizon Theory:
- if your financial planning is mostly on a day-to-day basis, you are lower class
- if your financial planning is mostly on a month-to-month basis, you are middle class.
- if your financial planning is mostly on a year-to-year basis, you are upper middle class.
- if your financial planning is mostly on a generation-to-generation basis, you are upper class

And you want us to attempt discussing your class? Probably you should avail more info. Your income (combine with spouse if married), Your average expenditure in a month, any assets, both active and passive, liabilities etc etc. Chakula ya mia moja kila siku kwa familia may not be sufficient info considering that you could be staying in some place in karatina or western kenya where you get all the food from your shamba.

At this point we can simply conclude: Matata is classless!(We r assuming he/she lives in Nairobi)
