Not really sure what there is to ask....?

MidnightMusing5 · 23/05/2025 22:47

Qualifications , what uni he went to if any?

Fin2Swim · 23/05/2025 22:47

I'm interested, can you share the career path of your son's GF? What GCSEs, a-levels, private or state school, which uni, what course(s), what personality?

PhilosophicalCheeseSandwich · 23/05/2025 22:49

My son earns 755 whole pence an hour. Trolley lad. His girlfriend's the high earner. Apprentice. AMA.

nowahousewife · 23/05/2025 22:49

Definitely doable salaries for mid 20’s in those careers. Just hope they’re enjoying their jobs and living their best lives. Love to see young people doing well.

What are they doing to future proof themselves for when A.I. can do their jobs? I work in one of the aforementioned industries and the pace of change is accelerating hugely.

ChicJoker · 23/05/2025 22:54

Are they looking to be in a throuple? Asking for a friend

Mangolover123 · 23/05/2025 22:59

Good for them.both. Hard work combines with intelligence and determination to succeed- well done. Hope he is lovely with it.

He is on 120k and his 27 year old girlfriend is on 180k. Banker and lawyer.

Heylittlesongbird · 23/05/2025 23:03

I’m only here because I want someone to explain what AIMA means.

How much do they give you?

Elektra1 · 23/05/2025 23:08

£180k is a standard salary for a 2PQE lawyer at a US firm. £120k for an investment banker sounds low.

tara66 · 23/05/2025 23:08

Remember they will go into the 55% tax bracket.

LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway · 23/05/2025 23:09

Pah! I make £300K a month getting my kebab out on Only Fans! 😏

IWillAlwaysBeinaClubWithYouin1973 · 23/05/2025 23:09

I'm not sure the OP has understood what their role might be in an "AIMA" (sic) thread ...

tartyflette · 23/05/2025 23:10

My DS, a bit older and not in law or banking, earns £100k plus. He fucking well earns it.

WeegieW · 23/05/2025 23:12

This is not very interesting. What is there to ask?

Jane958 · 23/05/2025 23:12

You have a baby goat?

My free loaders are earning nothing. Should I kick them out?

AthWat · 23/05/2025 23:16

I know someone who owns three cars. Questions welcome.

Colts627 · 23/05/2025 23:16

My best friend’s son is 22 and earns £2m+ bonuses.

He thinks he is underpaid!

£120k doesn’t put you in 55% territory
