Very cheeky question - how much money do you have coming into your household per week?

I know it's rude and cheeky so ignore me if you want!!

We have about £275 coming in per week wages only.

I'm not counting tax credits or child benefits.

Just hard cash!

Bet you are all coy now!

jessicaandrebeccasmummy · 19/05/2006 11:27

ill be open, we take home £1100 per month in wages which is the same weekly as SSD.

I also get £76.06 per week tacx credits and £116.60 child benefit every 4 weeks.

I don't think you will get much joy tbh ..

mummyhill · 19/05/2006 11:42

I have to admit I am curious to know why you want to know what our weekly income is.

sugarfree · 19/05/2006 11:44

£30,000
Dh is pro footballer.

expatinscotland · 19/05/2006 11:44

That is indeed a very cheeky question.

zippitippitoes · 19/05/2006 11:49

merrymum · 19/05/2006 11:53

merrymum · 19/05/2006 11:59

Wordsmith · 19/05/2006 12:00

Both self-employed so varies from the sublime to the ridiculous. Why do you want to know?

merrymum · 19/05/2006 12:04

controlfreaky · 19/05/2006 12:05

sugarfree · 19/05/2006 12:05

I presume you have someone beat the shit out of you?!!!!!

maltesers · 19/05/2006 12:06

SUGERFREE wwow you dont know how lucky you are !We struggle with three kids. My ex dh sends £350 maintenance per month for me to clothe feed and keep a roof over my two older kids heads. Its hard.

maltesers · 19/05/2006 12:11

MERRYMUMS, THATS A BIT HARSH AND VERY VULGAR. No malice from ssd i am sure. You dont have to tell ssd so dont worry. Sometimes poeple just want to think of an interesting thread.

Marne · 19/05/2006 12:11

At the moment we only get about £175 in wages, Im on mat leave £80 a week, dh working part time at the moment as he is a SAHD when i'm working.

peachyClair · 19/05/2006 12:12

same income as JARM (£1100) but with an extra child, therefore £50@ child benefit extra, and £20 tax credits a week extra plus a student loan of £4k a year and small maintenance grant of £2K

merrymum · 19/05/2006 12:12

WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING AT ME??!! i am only having a laugh. ggeeezzzz.

mummyhill · 19/05/2006 14:00

Personally 2 thirds less than I was earning 5 years ago as I decided to go part time so I could spend time with the kids so compared to what has to go out to pay the bills not enough. DH's salary hasn't changed at all for 5 yrs either and when the price of stuff keeps going up it's a joke.
