Interestingly enough there is a tecaher near me who is a millionaire. Not sure how he did it though.
That's quite possible if he is a headteacher. It depends on the school and location, and how far up the payscale he is, but at the top of the scale, a headteacher can pull in £107k p/a iirc. So if he got into the right position early enough and spent very little money, then maybe he could be a millionaire.
/edit:
Apaarently it's a max of £112k now.

Working as a software dev?
I am working my way up the marketing ladder within the games, movies and retail industry., but there is enough money to be earned in my current job to see me up to £35k per year + double that (and more) in bonus's, so just carrying on to be honest. Would love to be a pilot though.
Secretary/PA will be lucky to pull £25k even with plenty of experience; unless they are PA to someone very high up the food chain.
I utterly love my job. It's just handy that it happens to coincide with a well paid skills/industry/sector too (software development/finance/hedge fund).

Wouldn't want to be at tesco

Currently work at financial software solutions vendor in London which pays £33k and am in the process at applying for a development role at ABN Amro(RBS) working on their options pricing back end which will pay £40k+ bonuses
Not sure I will take it due to the current climate, I am quite safe in my current position

Not developer as such, more software support. But I guess this year I will learn a lot to maybe open the door to development.
The office is really institutional compared to the public working environment I'm used to (and kind of miss - the banter with random people, the buzz you get from the bustle of masses etc.) I guess I'm kind of trading the enjoyment of interacting with different types of people, for a career where I will be continually learning a specialized, technical skill to help improve the productivity of a business (and earn me lots of money in the process!) At the moment however, I feel more happy being with people than earning lots of money (old job vs. new job).
I'd point out though that the LPC costs £12,000, that it is the single most dull course in the world and that you would have, at that point, missed out on doing that BVC
mmm 30k I get 17k ish a year but throw 2 kids into the equation
= take home £1200
tax credit £450 ish
ema £130 ish
uni grants, bursury £275 month ish
not short of 25k take home , no wonder half of the world is bringing their kids to the uk

If you started earning that your parents would start charging you
No they're not greedy. I have asked this on many occasions as indeed most (UK) people I speak to in the internetz seem to think so, but both my mum and dad have no desire to charge me and say I can live with them as long as I like with free food and a free room, no matter my (financial) situation...
Same with most of my mates here, none get charged even though most work and live with their parents ( over 18), most in fact get loads of stuff from their parents, one of them will get a bloody 12k car for free
others get mopeds etc for free...
