Still not a great definition, because many working class people have emergency funds saved up. It’s normally advised for adults to have a 6-month emergency fund of savings to live on, and many of us responsible types do. My basic necessities could be met for a long time with no job but I would need to get one before the savings ran out of course.
If you don’t find a new job within 6 months, then what?
I have literally 3 years worth of minimum living savings, but that isn’t actually a lot of money and I only have it because I live well below my means because I’ve spent my whole life in poverty.
I’m not owner class even tho I can go 3 years without working. Because eventually I do need more income to survive. Owners don’t. They can use passive income and never ever have to work again. That’s the difference.

6 months savings is still at risk tho.
