To ask what you earn?

[working925]

Just read another thread about earnings. How old are you and what do you earn? I'm nosey!!

[Mammylamb]

Buner I'm sure that some folk are telling the truth, but really think that others are telling porkies!! Of course, I could be wrong; but we are all hiding behind a cloak of anonymity on the internet

[Si1verst0rm]

I don't earn as a SAHM. DH doesn't have a salary as such, but he did make about £10 million after tax this year, though he reinvests most of it.

30, lawyer, £100k plus bonus

[DillyDally15]

Love how it's the people earning 50k+ that are straight in there sharing their salary. Also OP asked what YOUR age and earnings are. Not that of your £1m earning partner!

[SerialChangerOfName]

I care for my elderly and disabled father 24/7/52 and save the LA a shed load of dosh. In return they give me £62 per week.

I'm in my 30s and earn about 100k when everything's added up. For many years I was closer to 15k.

[Lexieblue]

33 and earn 35k feel very lucky.

[IckleWicklePumperNickle]

Mid 30s on £25+k in private telecommunications company. Very low level staff. No desire to be a manager.

DH mid 40s on £34+k and private use of a company car. Managerial position in private company.

We’re north of the border.

I’m 30 and I earn £25k a year

[Rufustherenegadereindeer1]

Ooh I'm 48

[RaininSummer]

Certainly a massive disparity. I have worked for over thirty years with a break as a mum at home and have never earned more than 24k despite degrees etc.

[Notanothernamechangeaddict]

Me age 40, 10k
Dh age 46, 22k
Mortgage nearly paid off, house worth 250k
I have a brand new car, Dh 3 year old bigger car
2 foreign holidays a year
15k in the bank

[Notanothernamechangeaddict]

No debts, cars owned outright

[AnneElliott]

Age 39 and £54k.

[WeLikeLucy]

Before I had children I earned £29k, now I'm 37, a SAHM but do part-time work during evenings and get about £5k.
DH (38) middle management in large retail company - £49k
He recently had a pay rise, but for years when the kids were tiny he was on about £30k and things felt tight.
Now we are able to make overpayments to our mortgage.

[Paddybare]

33, £76k

[SecretSmellies]

I'm 48. I earn £28 k. DH is retired and earns approx £62 k from shares and other investments.

I reckon we are rolling in it.We don't go out much, and don't go away on fancy holidays.We have a 14 year old car. Ds has SEN and is in a special school that we pay approx £14 k for year.

[Hateloggingin]

Me (female) 42 and circa £70k, dp (male) 44 circa £35k plus car. We're in the midlands

[working925]

Really interesting replies. Now there's loads of other questions I wish I'd asked. Degree? Location? Working hours? Kids?
Yes I do wonder if high earners are more likely to answer - that's also really interesting.

It's also interesting that those people with lower earnings sometimes feel the need to comment on partner high earnings.

[Givemeallthechocolate]

I'm 26, earn 30k per year. As does my husband who is 32. So we draw 50% profit from our business each.

[RaindropsAndSparkles]

No particularly high earnings have been mentioned have they? Surrey here though.
