How much do you earn?
As a follow up to the occupation thread I thought it might be interesting to see how much the average Scoobynetter earns. I appreciate this is personal info, but the poll should keep it annonymous.

Not as much as I think I'm worth, a lot more than when I started on £34 a fortnight, but more than I deserve, or so my boss tells me

Are we talking EARNING or RECEIVING?
In most cases they are completely different .....

60k total income - 70k morgage no cedit cards etc and we are still overdrawn each month
One of our contractor DBA's gets 100 quid an hour (12 hour shifts 5 days!!) and he still seems to be as broke as I am.

Because you always tend to live up to your income: I earn a reasonable amount, have a lowish mortgage, no debts but still manage to spend everything. Well, my wife, children and I spend everything is perhaps more accurate.
