Inspired by the ‘NI cut’ thread. Are you a top revenue earner? I’ll ask for an anonymous poll but if you feel comfortable saying your annual income please do.

Edit - talking about individual income but if you want to post household too that’s great.

Options:
<£20k pa
£21k to £30k
£31k to £45k
£46k to £59k
£60k to £74k
£75k to £99k
£100k to £200k
£201k+

Household or individual? Asking on behalf of my wifes BF
Individual but if you want to post a message including household that’s fine.
Here: https://www.projectfinanciallyfree.com/uk-income-percentile-calculator/

You can put age, region and wage and it gives you a relative percentile. We could then put a poll for the ranges, 10 wide, e.g. 0-10, 11-20, and then add some specific ones in the 90s. 91-95, 96, 97, 98, 99.
Where’s the filter for OcUK forum members?
 
I’m 75% ONS, 78% HMRC. I don’t see it as that useful because there’s a massive uptick beyond about 80% in what the actual income is.
 
Much more useful than pure income.

91st percentile here. Mainly because of hybrid working I'm able to live somewhere relatively cheap but work darn sarf where all the gucci belt wearers roam.

There’s nothing to stop someone starting that thread then this one can go.

99th ONS/HMRC if including shares, I pay income tax on them so I think it’s fair to include them.

Otherwise without shares 95/96.

Now we find out why this poster wants to use that metric.
 
I'm happy either way, I just think it's a better indication as percentiles. I work in Cambridge, salaries are high, but the cost of living is only second to London (in some places it's worse, we have people commuting from outer zones of London to Cambridge).
You’re right, maybe too many variables to measure cost of living versus income for a simple poll.
 
where as i am the opposite. These days I can affford designer clothes if i want, but they all come from asda, tescos, or sainsburys. Sometimes Jacamo or such like.
I used to like designer gear when I was younger (and wasn't paying :D). I think back then it was appreciably better quality but nowadays everything has coalesced in the middle (or lower). I normally just get Next stuff (used to be Debenhams). Sometimes splash out for Tommy Hilfiger but I don't always like the style of their stuff.
