To ask how much you were earning at 25yrs old and also at 35yrs old?

[MrsSimonBasset]

Call me nosey but at 25 I’d not quite got into the sector I’m in now and at 35, I’d already started on my career path. Went to university, had my kids afterwards, but was done by the time I was 30yrs old. I’ll start £19,000 and £30,000. I will admit that it has accelerated since. But more interested in those crucial child rearing years between 25-35.

25 - guess 25K
35- 0
45 - 16k

25 about 27 I think? 35 about 10k more.

25 - Roughly £39k
30 - Roughly £65k

Had 1 year of maternity from age 29-30. Currently pregnant so expect another year of maternity from age 31-32.

Expecting to be on mid-70s possibly 80ish by age 35.

Solicitor

Newly qualified at 25 - 24k
Now at 35 - 45k

At 25 i was on 9000
At 35 i was on 25000
Moved from trainee chef to college lecturer

Had two kids between 26 and 31 but went back to same employer both times, did a brief stint part time then back to full time. I’m the main earner though.

Not a linear picture.

First grad job in 200, £17k in London, barely covered costs
Age 25 another job up to about £25k
That rose and in successive jobs was in £35k plus bonuses and commissions by age 30. But still not huge salary for London
On becoming a lone parent, in another part of the country one job £30k and another £26k
But then I worked hard, proved myself and now age nearly 40, on nearer £42k after promotion. And the money goes further here, a lot further.

25 - 9k pro rata (3 days)
35 - 0
45 - 0

25 - £37k
33 - £55k

£6500 at 25, my life's ambition was to make 5 figures, which I did at about 28 It was a long time ago.

25 was around 38k
I'm 27 (on 42k) now but by 35 I'm anticipating 55 - 60k

25 - about 21k
35 - about 40k
Also I had one DC during that period and took the full year maternity leave.

25 - £6 I was at uni doing PGCE. I was give 6k bursery but I had to pay 15k in fees
26 - £21k
35 - £0 SAHM

25: 12k which rose to the heady heights of 14k by the time I was 28.

Now I’m 32: 10k and that’s with a career change.

25 years - 21,000

35 years - 35,000

25 - 18,000
Early 30s now - 65,000 plus discretionary bonus

Hopefully on 70,000 plus bonus by 35.

25 - £37500
32 - £62500

25 = 24k
35 = 50k (I’m now 37)

I was on benefits at 25. I earn £8.75ph now at 30. I expect to be on a salary by age 35 but not a high one, about £23k is the average at my company. It's unskilled work though, I've no qualifications and no desire to be a high earner.

25 - 26k (29k including bonus)
35 - 45kish (55ish Inc bonus)
Nearing 40 50k (60ish Inc bonus)

25 yo - £23k plus commission and bonuses
35 yo - ~£55k plus bonuses. I had one child by this point.

As an example without any child rearing:
25: c.£30k
35: c.£120k

Friends in the same field who had children in that period mostly plateaued at management level - so around £80k.

Like some PP’s, my salary went down in these years.

25- £31,000
35- £18,000

25: about 20k 15 years ago
35: about £64 a week

25 - 30K
35 - nothing. Chronic disabilities.
