If you live in the north what would you say is a good wage

Where in the North ? There's quite a bit of it up here and some marked regional differences ... but the numbers from your other thread would certainly count as good.

Is this a homework question?

A) Depends on type of job.
B) Where in the North?

In 1974 I moved from Petersfield in Hampshire to St Helens, Lancashire. I believe the wage was £100 per month plus living allowances of similar.

Needless to say I have earned more since.

Anything over about £102,200 is "ok".

Exactly, and the op is on 1,000 x £102,200 - so they're looking pretty good!

as they will pay more tax if they are in a higher earner bracket.. definitely not worth it

10/- a year. It's ok. There are better wages but you still have to guddle the odd trout from the lairds river to feed the bairns.

Anywhere near your own weight in turnips is good. I can barter them with the locals for horse and cart rides to the fayre.

£12 a year can buy you.......Wigan, so it's about context.

£6 will get you half of Stoke and £4 all of Dudley, but does exclude the Zoo.
