In the UK class is about your education, how you speak and who your parents are and, to a lesser extent, money.

In the US I get the impression that it is much more about money. And therefore less static.

The money is implied by having parents who can afford your private school fees.

True. But it is possible to be not wealthy and still upper class. You can also be rich and lower class.
