MR Hosty, I may be able to provide personal details such as my monthly or yearly income and outgoings if your wanting to put together some statistics.Mine are probably a little different to most as I'm in that 13-16K band, run a car, pay mortgage (with all the other asociated costs- car and home insurance, stopping the place from falling down etc.) I work for a county unit so they do not pay professional memberships but I am in the pension scheme (not getting any younger). Also trying to pay for and finish an MSc. Also have mates with stay at home partners (raising the children). I guess you could call us the older mob with increasing financial responsibilities but little prospect of better pay/positions in the immediate future. And somewhere we are supposed to squeeze in the IFA.
