A house is enough, right? Pretty easy to soak up most of your post-tax income on mortgage payments
I’m currently paying mortgages on a house with under the average UK income, the extra 30k or so (give or take with taxes) just mean I can pay it off sooner.
Fair - my point was not ‘you have to have this income to do this’ so much as ‘it’s actually pretty easy to spend a tonne more without it being some sort of super luxurious lifestyle”.
Have 2 kids, want a 3 bed in London with a garden for them to play in? It gets expensive quick
