For a single person yes. Plenty to have a great time and great trips away.

Not single - have a husband and child. Husband will be earning though not sure how much yet.

Absolutely. I feel like the average pay in London is like half that.

Half of the people in London also don’t have a family to support and they live in small shared flats

Yes. 50k to live single as minimum. 90k means you can get a nice place and enjoy treating yourself and your family. (Don’t get a car, look for a place close to public transport - rent when needed - unless you need to drive out of London on daily basis)

London average income is c.33/35k

Has anyone here renegotiated their salary after a short time being in a role? I accepted a position and I like what I do but I realize that the workload requires a lot to see success and I feel a bit burned out already with my 40 hours/week and occasional extra 30 minutes to an hour a day.

I am stuck between putting in my time and showing my value and asking for an increase to validate doing so to avoid job hopping after a year or so.

I got burned on a question like this as a 2nd yr, so I think I’m just hyper aware of the risk. I’ve been told I need to get “more efficient” though, so I’m trying to work on this. Any suggestions?
