How much does £45,000 a year get you a month?
 
Hi all,

Just been offered a new job with quite a few perks. I've been offered £45,000 a year. I understand this is now into the higher tax bracket. What would I expect to take home each month?

FlightMan 22 June 2007 03:07 PM

Approx £2500.

Petem95 22 June 2007 03:09 PM

£2,668.07

Use this Tax Calulator and depress yourself by seeing how much you pay :)

paulg1979 22 June 2007 03:11 PM

Pretty good then. I can see myself purchasing a new car pretty soon then!

paulg1979 22 June 2007 03:12 PM

I hope your prospective employer doesnt read this as if you cant divide £45,000 by 12 then you shouldnt really be earning that..:lol:

well done on the new job paul :thumb: (thats if you take it)

Arithmetic however basic or hard may not be a requirement of this job

It isn'y in my job either, neither did I have to do any maths exams to get the job :D

The original question was asking about after tax figures, which is a little more than dividing 45,000 by 12 :)

Earn 50% more than someone on 30k pa, yet only get 33% more in your pocket. Pretty crappy that.

Damn socialists. ;)

paulg1979 22 June 2007 05:51 PM

Theres always one with a stupid answer who doesn't seem to read the post properly before posting a reply. Thanks guys I hope it goes well. If it all goes well I should start in August. Fingers crossed.:)

Its funny, I was on about 37k last year but am now contracting and clearing about a grand a week on average, perhaps a bit more but trying to over save for my tax bill, I used to clear about 2 grand to 2.5 grand a month dependant on call out but I dont know how I managed and I have not bought a new car or any other big purchases ?

Where the f*ck it goes I dont know ?

Lols there are two of us stupid ones on this thread. :luxhello:

PaulC72 22 June 2007 08:29 PM

as others have said its around 2500 - 2600, obviously the degree of other perks will make the difference as if you have health car {bupa or similar} you will be taxed on that, same as any other things although they are not major tax costs they will ake the take home different.

Well done on getting a job in that region although when you get our first pay packet you will be depressed :( it is very hard to land a decent paying job.

If you dont mind saying what type of work do you do?

LG John 22 June 2007 10:06 PM

This thread only reaffirms why I want to play poker for a living. Earning £50,000 a year at that is the equivellent of Joe Employee on a pre-tax wage of £75,500.

I'd also love knowing that £25,500 of my money isn't going on funding the lifestyle of scum that can't be bothered to work, etc.

Its frightening what some of us have to pay to the goverment due to us having a decent job :mad:

I would love to rid our isle of the scum :norty:

Sonic' 23 June 2007 03:54 AM

If you play poker are your winnings not taxable ?

LG John 23 June 2007 09:58 AM

No tax on gambling in the UK :) They still get your savings when you put your winnings in your bank account! And, they'll get you for VAT when you spend your money, duty when you buy fuel, fags, booze and finally take another chunk when you die!!!

Hi,

Well I was a Self employed abseiler in London. Basically high access maintenance work. Window cleaning, fitting eyebolts, etc... but got offered a job as a operations manager for a pretty big company so i'm hoping it will work out ok. Good thing is I get a pension scheme and am i'm only 27 so thats a bonus.

paulg1979 23 June 2007 09:02 PM

Just seen a STi Hawk Eye on autotrader for £17500 and very tempted but will need to get a loan for £300 a month for 60 months. Am I mad? Does anyone else pay this much a month for a car?

falkster 23 June 2007 09:12 PM

But next year the higher tax bracket is going up from £33,300 to £45k as far as I can remember!! (might be £40k but its still better)
