Class
Dan Prick tugs our coat and tells us: "I'm enormously middle class, and was once dragged along to a bingo club by a former girlfriend and her mum. It's incredible the fury you can whip up in a room of old biddies winning a fuckton of money and telling them 'This is a load of old shit, really'". Like Pulp's Common People, have you ever tried to act down, or act up?

Work:
In physics, a force is said to do work when it acts on a body, and there is a displacement of the point of application in the direction of the force. For example, when you lift a suitcase from the floor, the work done on the suitcase is the force it takes to lift it (its weight) times the distance that it is lifted.
So, if you do no work, you're already dead. Class is really a question of how much work you actually do, how much fun you have doing it, and the quantity/direction of any money transferred because of it.

Money is insulation
Working classes have enough to be insulated from privation
Middle classes have enough to be insulated from discomfort
Upper classes have enough to be insulated from uncertainty
Emirate & sultanate princes have enough to be insulated from consequences
