I pay my nanny £10/hr gross - 50hrs/week ...costs me grand total of £28,500 with employers nics - as she has been chatting about her upcoming holiday to Jamaica - it just occured to me how much disposable income she has (ignoring the fact that she lives at home rent free etc and I have a massive mortgage and 4 kids to feed and cloth) -- how much do I have to earn to at least take home the same as her ..ie what do I have to earn to pay her from my net salary and have the same net income as her???
