Ask me anything, after this I will name change.

Happy to take the good and the bad.

Is he really a scaffolder then?! Is that what he does?

@Teenangels what finance investments do you have and in what industries / companies ?

@Teenangels cant, too lazy.

You could make hubby do a window cleaning round on weekends if you need the extra pennies.

There is always a lot of people that are a lot richer than us, as I said my kids were the only ones to have a Saturday when doing A-levels, at Uni.

How many hours do you both work?

Do you have a good work/life balance? Work from home or office/location based?

Oh dear what did @brightyellowflower say?!

This thread is absolute chaos.

😂😂 he'll be working much longer hours than the staff.

seems only in theory are people allowed to be rich on tv, and not discuss their wealth unless its in eg biographies etc

Think you're getting a much harder time than usual here, op.

Congratulations on the success you've both had, I mean that genuinely, it's something most of us can't begin to imagine which is why I think you're getting so much grief (that & snobbery).

It sounds like you & your husband have built your wealth through his business, is that right?

Its amazing you've earned so much through a trade like that. Can you tell us anymore, without outing yourselves, about you both did that?

Just through business growth (scaffolding)?
Or from expanding the business in different directions or building a property portfolio?

"We have 4 ovens, I have never used all 4 at one time, but they looked better in the run of kitchen units." 😂😂😂 well good for you, glad it looks good, some of us can't afford one.

Were you just friends for the first 15 years, or were you the OW? It's a confusing timeline

Yes I was thinking that. something feels totally off about this whole thread. It wouldn’t surprise me if it’s not real.

Bet DH doesn't even know his personal balance sheet is being slapped onto the plasterboards of Mumsnet. Does he, @Teenangels? You'll need a scaffold to escape.

😂😂😂😂😂

Seriously @Teenangels what's the fucking point of this. You earn bugger all of interest and what plenty of women on here earn.

Your husband's company does well.

What are we supposed to ask?

I have a little part time job because DH earns 6 figures and very well on bonus years. And?????

What do you think is so interesting or unusual about your situation that you'd start a thread about income you don't even earn, and announce ask me anything?

Our average holiday is between 20-25k depending on how many kids are coming, if we are going skiing over new year it will be more, if we are going to the Caribbean in February it will be about 10k for the week.

Our house is 4500sf.

Close family are very happy as they have seen both if work hard, and some more extended family think they are entitled to things like cars or loans whenever.

£720,000 a year take home, in scaffolding? BS

Interesting answer. This actually makes complete sense, and gives a valuable insight into why the business has been successful.

It's tacky and crass

So were you the OW?

Really, its a very good business model, just look around any city and see all that scaffolding

What is the largest animal you think you could throw over a football crossbar?

why ?

why as a society can we not both discuss both ends of the wealth spectrum ?

Do you still do ordinary people things, like go to the library?
