This thread just makes me angry to be honest. Nurse salaries scraping the barrel ...most nurses don't don't come close to late 30k figures. I'm not belittling others jobs or wages ...but wtf with the responsibility nurses hold.

Interested in this thread?

@Lincolnremain to answer your question:

Overpay £4.5k on the mortgage every month (it is £570k and basic cost is £2.6k. Hopefully will mean it's paid off by the time we're 48 (jobs are exhausting and unlikely health will last)

£500 to kids savings share scheme work top up to be total £650k. I have 3 kids and prob have about £8k in savings each. Trying to save full £27k each for tuition fees prior to uni

£800 pension, work tops up so is £2,430 a month. I chrrrntly have about £140k. Didn't really start it until I was 31

My husband earns the same and we live off that

Keep £30k in savings and have some buy to let's that make about £1k a month but take time and need repairs

I am genuinely not boasting - when I was younger reading about women 10-15y older who's managed ti earn a lot really motivated me

If you want to earn more do some IT courses and find somewhere that you can commute to London. Any job starts at £30k. Do contacting £300 a day after a year, then go perm on £50k. Etc get into management

Had a very trying career lots of sexism. Battles. Etc but I want financial freedom and locked down wealth for my kids (something I never had).

28k or something, Band 5 Patient Flow Manager NHS

GyozaGuiting · 10/12/2022 21:40

My advice… cyber, finance and marketing you can increase your salary by 40%…. Even if you’re a support service.
I’m on 90k as a head of digital but that’s because I’m in the right industry…
also, BELIEVE IN YOURSELF. Think like a bloke.
I work for an American company where the men try and demand $200,000 for my job. A joke.

happySaturdays · 10/12/2022 21:40

Typo kids savings is £650 a month, not £660k!!

Also chosen not do private education - think having family home in London , plus tuition fees paid and us supporting elsewhere once mortgage gone, is a better choice. It's having free accommodation that was the massive blocker to mine and my DH starting out

blueflagflyhigh · 10/12/2022 21:41

Management accountant £41k FTE but I'm on about 24k part time.

happySaturdays · 10/12/2022 21:45

@GyozaGuiting 109% agree
Majority of people in finance outside quants / financial modelling / super complex ML models aren't super smart. Most are prob top 30% IQ wise so people who got A,B maybe a few C at school

Super smart people do those jobs medicine academia law - not finance

No one there is better than you and once you're in, you make your own luck. If they're sexist or unpleasant fight them or move on. It's yours to take
