How much do you earn?

[Gingercream]

I’m a GP and work part time, 3 days a week (although each day is usually 12hrs long with all the admin and paperwork so it’s still 36hrs/week) - my salary is currently £52500 per year.

This is so interesting! I was a Sales Negotiator for an estate agent, pay varied but averaged around £1800 a month take home. I have some health issues and had to give up driving, I was lucky enough to go into the admin role at the estate agency I worked for which was £16,500 a year. I have now had to quit because of my health. I’d like to find something i can do part time at home as we are topping up husbands income with savings, but it isn’t sustainable. Don’t want to go down the benefits route until absolutely necessary. If anyone has any suggestions of anything I can do...

Have you thought about doing audio typing from home? You can get paid pretty well

This thread is fascinating! I’m 27 and live in London... currently on £45k working in sales for a startup with about an extra £30k in bonus, but it really doesn’t go very far! My rent is £1200 for a room in a house share and my travel is about £350 on top.

Don’t think I have enough skills, but thank you x

I used to be an Assistant Accountant (10 years ago) in West Country earning 19k a year. I gave that up as i wasn't seeing my kids - i was constantly working and became mentally exhausted and it had an effect on my marriage. I now work nights in retail earning well less than what i did and im happier for it and i see my children and all is good.
So just because you earn good money doesn't make you happier.

I wonder if a good thread would be what's everyone's outgoings?
I'm finding it really interesting seeing the differing earnings.

 

[mimic93]

I work 4 days a week as a receptionist and earn about £14k a year pre tax. I also have a small business making wax melts which is going quite well but not a big income. used to work in sales and was earning about 3 x that (I live in a very seasonal place, not big money round here!) but wanted a better work/life balance.. however now I spend all my time making wax melts haha!

 

[CrazyCatLady101]

37 hours a week and in an office £21.600 before tax - those who work from home, do you have advise on how to fet started? I have often wondered what kind of jobs you would do from home and not be self employed

[lipsticktaser]

I’m a SAHM with an ‘allowance’.
I don’t really view it like that. We have a joint account that covers bill, food shopping, school fees etc. I personally had a hard time taking money for nights out, hair, nails, clothes etc. Hated buying his Christmas and birthday from the joint account. I like handbags, stoped buying them as I felt guilty taking money from the account.
this way I get over my issues and can save a bit if I want big ticket items.
He also has a separate account that has his ‘play’ money in it.
I’ve always worked but stopped two years ago because my daughter had really bad anxiety and the after school care and the school she was in don’t help.
moved her private which is 40 mins away, and I do the school and club runs.
It was a hard transition for me and this way of doing money works for me.

I’m 31 in Scotland. Husband is 40.

Guys, you’re ruining the perception of us tattlers with this thread

 

[LittleMy]

Nothing at the moment as currently a SAHM, but prior to having my kids I worked as a Senior Care Assistant in a dementia unit. Salary at full-time was around £18K. Reduced my hours after maternity leave with my first, then gave it up completely after my second was born (eldest was 2 at the time) due to issues with childcare.

I’m 30 years old from Scotland.
