the defintions are kinda broad depending on how you see each class. It's dificult to explain.

It's better then your explanation mate.

Class is a dificult thing it can be seen as being based around your job (like Supernoodles said) but it can also be based around your upbringing or your economic status. It's believed that somebody cannot change class but I don't think that's true. In normal cases Class tends to be more about possessions and property and money and such.
