    The thing I can't get my head round is why would you ever put yourself out there like that in the first place? Even if you are only just a high rate tax payer, there will be a good amount of folk to line up and tell you how it is in the real world!

      That's what I thought and came up with 3 x possibilities,

      1. They want to be able to boast about the combined take home.
      2. They are actually pretty dumb and a bit out of touch.
      3. They didn't approve the article before it was published or signed away their rights approve it and didn't realise it would be so bad.

      I noticed they edited the article since yesterday and changed the pic to cut out the kids which they should of done in the first place.
      I like big butts and I cannot lie.

        Ah yes, the edits are interesting, wouldn't have been done for no reason...

                Thing is - many good folk on here are making the sweet dollars - but it's one thing to make the dollars, another thing entirely to claim poverty. Such a couple of muppets. Is this the result of living in the London bubble?

                  Indeed. I think there are many who live in a CUK bubble.

                    If your taxation all of sudden goes up by 30% then I think at the very least one gets the right to whine about it...
