Board for high earners

309 replies

I see that the other thread was started by an OP who wasn’t engaging in good faith. I certainly am so, Mumsnet, can we please have a separate board for high earners? It would be helpful for these threads to be in one place and to avoid them being high jacked by the inevitable “small violin” and “diamond shoes” comments.

Good idea. You could call it “Considerably Richer Than You”

I really don’t think this demographic is underrepresented on Mumsnet

Yes please, just so I can ignore that board 😄

Babbadoobabbadock · 08/10/2024 20:01

Can we have one for those of us who are stunningly beautiful too ?

Well we could combine the two - I’m rich AND stunningly beautiful!

Baglessvacuous · 08/10/2024 20:02

Can we have a board for those with private incomes?

And another board for people to whang on about inheritances?

Viviennemary · 08/10/2024 20:03

I don't think this would be a good idea. Why not a board for those with second homes or for those worried about inheritance tax changes. Or worried about losing their status as non doms. There is enough silly boasting as it is.

pinkyredrose · 08/10/2024 20:03

The Us and Them board.

Babbadoobabbadock · 08/10/2024 20:04

But are you also insanely intelligent @Dollybantree ? #blessed

DrSpartacular · 08/10/2024 20:05

Don't be ridiculous.

Sethera · 08/10/2024 20:07

It's back! You can't keep a good old goady thread down!

BeatrizBoniface · 08/10/2024 20:08

I would like a board for those of us who are very rich, beautiful, talented, kind and charming.
I'm tired of explaining about this on other boards, can we have a special one for people like me?

BeatrizBoniface · 08/10/2024 20:09

pinkyredrose · 08/10/2024 20:03

The Us and Them board.

Elite and Riff Raff.

TheBunyip · 08/10/2024 20:09

I just worry it will be so full you won’t all fit in and there won’t be anyone left on the rest of MN Sad

BeatrizBoniface · 08/10/2024 20:10

Perhaps a whole one devoted to the issue of VAT on private schools?

FKAT · 08/10/2024 20:10

I want to know why the geniuses who are so 'intelligent' they have big paying jobs are also so dumb they don't realise you can't police an online forum by income.

If we had a high earners board, 99% of the posters would be there to take the piss.

PronounsBaby · 08/10/2024 20:11

Id like a board for ugly, poor, dickheads please

What to do? 😮

Hoppinggreen · 08/10/2024 20:11

Don't do it, Labour will try to stick VAT on it

WindsurfingDreams · 08/10/2024 20:11

Oooh yes please, I am glad this is restarted.
I think the best thing to do is have it a subscription only board. Set a decently high price. That should weed out the riff raff

I think it should be a £100k a year.

Let’s add one for those of us with a PhD. That’ll be fairly exclusive 🍪.

People are people, no need to be a wanker if you’ve got something you don’t think other people have.

settingz · 08/10/2024 20:12

Why not rename all of the rest of the boards with the prefix ‘Peasant’ while you’re at it. So ‘Peasant Style & Beauty’ ‘Peasant Chat’, and so on.

I would say a PhD only from Oxbridge.
I met someone once with a PhD from Birmingham! Can you imagine?!

Do posters qualify if it’s their DH earning that rather than them?
