Anyone who saw a thread recently would assume everyone has at least 100k saved in an emergency fund, but that would be aside from their investments, premium bonds and additional mortgage free properties.

Anyway… some more reliable statistics!

And yes this is to make people like me who are ‘average’ feel better about it. 😁

I think there's a typo in the table. How can the % of people with less than 10k be lower than the % of people with 1k?

Think the 10k % should be more than not less than.

I thought the same.

But I thought maybe it was:

• People with less than £1,000
• people with £1,000+ but less than £10,000.

In the article it links to a TikTok video which shows the table, but the far right column is more than £10k

Interesting

Good spot, I was going with the video of more than 10k.
