The are some high earning people on Urban. To take home £4k+ after deeductions you will have to be earning a gross monthly salary of at least £6.75k. Thats £81k minimum per annum. But they are the most "right on" "spartists" on the boards.

To be fair the boards are nothing like as right on as they once were... Most of the hardcore trots etc have gone.

innit.

nurses can be a bit confusing... I earn an <ahem> "middle-class" wage, the so-called Registrar General's scale makes me a "B" (as in AB C1/C2 etc), i.e. up with teachers and middle-management (wtf lol), but most of us come from working-class backgrounds. My dad was a steel erector and I spent 7 years in t' mill.

I'm addicted to Lattes these days, so what does that make me now lol

tbh when you said you were a nurse i was surprised, as i really didn't think nurses could make that much. good on you, i say.

what fucks me off are the people that sit there shifting money around the world all day and earn 100s of thousands a year. :mad:
 
Yeah. I don't have any problem with people earning big bucks - good on them. However I like to take the piss when it is the rightonarchists who suddenly confess to having wads of cash.

How do you know who's said they're earning over 4k? :confused:

Has it occurred to you also that some people may not have been entirely honest either? ;)

I want to be kanda. His disposable income is high. I don't have much left over after I've paid for stuff. Once childcare kicks in I'm going to be seriously broke :(

But I get a baby which is better than money :)

I guess by the time he's five, so many celebs will have adopted fashionable black kids she'll be looking for the novelty of a white one.

I reckon that the more you earn, the more you think you need.

I take home 700 quid a month (with free flat), of which we spend around 200 quid. That is a fortune in China; our spending money just for food, nappies and beer is 3-4 times what your average country peasant will have per month for everything. Your average city pesron will probably take that home in per month. So we are living comfortably in chinese terms, have some luxuries and save the other 500 quid. I would struggle to save 500 quid per month in the UK.

On the other hand, I bet if I was working at an international school here, and taking home 2000-3000 pounds per month, I would immediately 'upgrade' a lot of things about how I live. I would start going to the expensive expat 'Irish pubs' where beer is more expensive than London for a pint. I would eat international cuisine a lot more often. And so on and so forth. I might not end up with that much more to save than that 500 quid.

Yet I still live quite well here. in London I was on 20k a year and was always broke. If I return I doubt I would be on much more than that, to start with.

:confused: And I thought you were an IT consultant or something similar. Did the market go bust or something? I never thought I'd ever see the day when I earn way more than an IT type.

(unless of course you do somethign completely different now, in which case put me on ignore lol)
 
So the majority take home over £1,500 a month...I wonder if that reflects a majority of posters living in London where the average wage is much higher?

It will be partly that and partly the demographics of internet users.
