Staggeringly and depressingly high.
I was at a wedding a few years ago, and I was surprised at the deliriously ecstactic reponse from the lady I was talking to when she was offered a lift home. It turned out she'd be saving for the last two months just to be able to afford the cab fare home from the wedding. The taxi fare would've been about 30 quid.
I'd just been telling her, at length, about the Porsche I'd bought myself as a wee treat/reward for having paid off my mortgage. I did a fair bit of privilege-checking that night.
Surprising high or low number ?
