We earn £345k, but soaring private school fees mean we can’t go on five holidays

[Kugelblitz]

Can’t link but a headline post in the Telegraph. The trolling is desperate surely ?

Lol

Hehe pretty hilarious write up

But the guy going to private school in Singapore when he was young? That doesn’t make sense - the best local schools are considered way better than international and locals don’t have to pay

Imagine agreeing to an interview like that and putting all your finances out for public discussion.

What a shame 😂

I think these people do actually believe they are victims though. They're so disconnected from the lives most of us live, they are oblivious.

Is there a gofundme?

It's tragic. I mean, imagine having to cut your annual holiday budget down to only £20k per annum.

Problem is there are too many people in the country who actually think like this and sadly (more so in the past rather than currently) a lot of them seem to be involved in running the country.

🙄

That’s embarrassing! 😀

I think the telegraph is just trolling for clicks at this point

Can someone suggest to them that they should “take in ironing”?

The most astonishing thing about that article is that the Telegraph's editorial team saw fit to publish it. I can only presume that they didn't foresee how badly it would come across. That tells you quite a lot about their perspective on things!

Hmm, maybe.

Well the pictures are stock pictures and the names Ali, Alexandra and Al as well as Harry and Barry must be made up.

The 'we've had to resort to Sainsburys and Europe instead of the Hamptons' as well as 'our daughter has to take sweets from the pantry to school' feel like someone is having a laugh.

Do we think Georgina fancied an easy week and decided just to create a parody story?

lol!! I’ll start a go fund me ….

Perhaps the Telegraph has been hacked?!

It does read like a piss take.

@CeliaCanth Comment capacity not available despite the 'tell us what you think about this story'

Oh bless their little cotton socks!
I cannot imagine the suffering!

Do you rememver that program where rich teens exchanged with poor ones? I think we may need it back.....

I think they knew exactly how badly it would come across and that’s why they published it.

Rage bait

Anyone got a link that gets through the payroll please?
Despite earning 50 squillion pounds a year, my private school VAT bill means I no longer can afford a Torygraph subscription.

Isn't the Telegraph against VAT on private schools, though?

Hugo is quite beside himself that he's got to sell the Jag, I've had to drop yogalates and my weekly blow dry.

I'm utterly furious that our plight is the subject of such fun.

If you're on your phone, click on the link and then switch to aeroplane mode as soon as it's loaded. You should be able to bypass the paywall...I did!
