The brainiest professionals in Britain, like
scientists, university academics and architects, are struggling to cling to the
privileges of middle-class life as a super-rich elite pushes up prices for
property and private education. The news says like in the 1970s these
professionals had been eclipsed by other professions like doctors, lawyers or
bankers.
So the first ones professions want the privileges of
the middle class because in my way to think they don’t earn the same money as
bankers o lawyers. Well, in the highest moments they think they earn a lot of
money and they can have a rich life buying cars and houses. But now the situation
has changed and they earn less money than other times and they have to cut
costs for some bands. I don’t want to judge because nowadays the economic
situation can change totally but I think you have to be always modest.
