Students expect £100,000 salary by 40

Which means money halves in value in about 20 years. And while £27k may be the median salary, it is not the median salary for 40-year-old professionals. So it may still be roughly what they might end up earning if they do a proper degree.

For the median salary of the target group to be 100k in 20 years, it would need to be 55k now with an effective 3% annual rate of salary inflation over the 20 years. So, if they aspire to be the equivalent of a 55k professional in today's terms, it would be achievable in 20 years at 3% inflation.

It's no guarantee of success. Lots of firms that create new markets get turned over by later entrants.

Exactly. Aspiring to a 55k salary is quite reasonable, if only that's what they meant!

Not near enough for the amount of work - I should have given home to some grumpy looking cat instead

Nice new toy, maybe mouseover on column headers to explain each header. Also click to sort by header.

On you have to subscribe page maybe a link to an example page so they can see what they are paying for?

Also maybe ability to filter on language and location as 'DBE' uses network entry point to decide on results.

yeah you should of got a cat to scratch the sofa!
