To ask your yearly household income?

[Sfuandtired]

Feel free to say I am being unreasonable and tell me to mind my own business, it’s a genuine question though, I’m interested in finding out if the wealth divide really is as big as it’s portrayed in the media and/or if I’m losing touch with reality.
I’ll start, ours is 60k after tax, 2 working adults and 2 children and I’d consider us to be in the average range. TIA

Plenty of stats available, what do you hope to achieve by asking mumsnetters?

Why?

Less than 30k. Dh is a manager on a shite wage in retail, I've had to cut my hours to 25 for personal reasons. We private rent & are paying off a lot of debt. 2 kids (DH children) half the time. We never go without. We are on the opposite spectrum of what I always see on here, but I most people I know are the same as me

60k before tax. No idea after as we have complicated tax status. It was 80k last year but we both reduced our hours because we were just working to pay childcare and had nothing left on top of that. SE England though so we can't get a mortgage on that.

There are plenty of similar threads if you search. I don't mind sharing, household income 250k but live in London so mortgage, childcare and commute costs alone are 5k a month

People will just make shit up, it's completely meaningless.

FWIW even though we are the lowest income out of all DS's friends, have the oldest car on our estate and can't afford a house around here, I think on a national average we're very much above average and in professional jobs.

Approx £21k. Me and 2 teens.

Edited to day that 1 teen is actually 19. So technically an adult.

42k at the moment, I’m looking at reducing my hours because I don’t need to be working the hours I’m doing!

National average for full time is 38k, so for two working parents national average is 76k, 80 percent of women who are mothers now work.

About £160k / yr. Both full time plus side hussle.

Northern. £200k mortgage on a £600k house. State schools. We save £1500-2000/month & enjoy good holidays.

120k pre tax but that equates to 7k a month take home and 6k of that is on household bills, childcare and mortgage. So not as exciting as it sounds!

Around £40k, retired couple

you can see where you rank here Your household's income : Where do you fit in? | Institute for Fiscal Studies (ifs.org.uk)

£290k gross, single in London. I work 6 days a week.

£100k I think? Company owner so we can change it if we need.

Yeah, I will get back to you on that.😆

including bonus, just under 1.5 million this year. Slightly less last year. One income family, I don’t work.

£42k for just myself. Looking to change career this year (not that I’ve done this one very long!) and will take a big pay cut though.

Not sure how any of that is relevant to my posts or what it has to do with my posts? 80% of women who are mothers are NOT working full time (many are part time like me...).

Where are you even getting those stats from? Statista says £34963 FTE (and that 8.4 million are PT workers in 2023), and ONS only goes up to 2020 and they reckon average is £471 a week which is £22608 per person (or £24492 if they are on proper contracts with paid holidays). https://www.ons.gov.uk/employmentandlabourmarket/peopleinwork/employmentandemployeetypes/bulletins/averageweeklyearningsingreatbritain/march2020

None of your business.

It’s around £65k before tax for us, two adults and no kids live in North West. Definitely in the upper range for our location
To add: we have spoken about having kids but both feel like it would be too much of a stretch atm, manageable but a stretch

7.4 million

You may consider it to be average range but it’s well above average. I don’t understand these posts as there’s stats out there if you really want to know.
