How is this possible? They clear at least 9k a month after tax and bought their house for just over £200k 16 years ago. They have £31k in bonds. My DP, on his own, bought a property just shy of £220k a few years ago on a salary of approx. £35k. No debt, lives within his means and as a result very comfortably too. FWIW, this is in the home counties, which are not all that far behind London in terms of living cost.
I can't help but think that, if their finances were dissected, they will be found to be throwing away money for no good reason.
Their claims of being 'middle earners' is a slap in the face for those genuinely struggling on £20k a year.
