What is a good salary?

[Stephen230]

Totally dependent on outgoings, as I’m sure has been said already.

The guy I know with the most disposable income hasn’t worked for years. Finished early on ill health. Has a couple of modest pensions and gets some PIP etc. But his outgoings are about £50 a week.

I work with other people who earn £70K, have wives in decent jobs and are still always crying poverty. Mainly because they insist on living in a castle and driving round in a tank that they pay extortionate amounts for each month.

I'd say £50,000 household income if you have kids and want a house, 2 cars, couple of holidays a year etc.

Does that include regular blow jobs from drone ?

Wow, fair enough, intrigued to see your house now!

The problem is Melton Blue, if I posted pictures some on here, some of the old timers, and they know who they are would say I am boasting..

Arugula is better than lettuce, I like any of the small leafed alternatives. Great with roasted beets and feta cheese, oil and vinegar dressing. Shredded purple and green cabbage, shredded carrot, edamame or garden peas, so many great combos

I am afraid so. Poll tax, insurance, heat and light, gardening, security, general maintenance easily exceeds that.

Security? Are you paying into a community scheme of sorts?

You spend 3 grand a month maintaining your house? What the fuck do you do, brick your own windows and piss through the letterbox every Friday night?

It’s actually more than that but I thought best play it down. You obviously have no idea how much it costs, just for house and contents insurance at the high end of the market or band H poll tax at £500 quid a month. Never mind heating costs on a 7400 sq ft property, plus security etc.My choice.

If I lived next door I would. :)

You wouldn’t say that if you knew who lived next door.

Security? Are you paying into a community scheme of sorts?

No. It’s a very sophisticated security system with 24 hour remote monitoring.
