It would be really helpful to know what this is relative to people’s earnings. I’m currently trying to decide if I should get a bigger place but also not sure if it’ll be too much to spend.

I’m on 90k looking for a not-shit 1 bed and the idea of almost half my take home going on rent is so depressing. Seems like no matter how well you think you’re doing there’s always London rent prices to smack you back down again 🫠

I was like this then I moved to the US (not NYC). Yes I save/invest a tonne of money now. Would I suggest someone moving to make money? Yes if you don’t have bank of mum/dad.

But other quality of life aspects are a lot lower here, I miss being able to walk / tube to regents, primrose, HHeath, Spitalfields, my friends/people with genuinely inclusive/open values.

So it’s a trade off, I doubt I will stay here forever

I’m just over 30 but going to comment anyway

1 bedroom with a small guest bedroom (setup as a study) 2.2k

Can’t really move out, a short commute helps with my hours and all my friends and life is in the city. I do complain about the rent situation but I do absolutely love this city

What are some credit cards like the Apple Card that don’t have any physical numbers on them?

I like the Apple Card and considering opening one but want to see if there are better alternatives. It’s enticing that if I lose my card, I can instantly change the number so someone can’t use it. Plus no numbers means someone can’t randomly make a large fraudulent purchase.

Hello All,

Can someone confirm what would be HSBC recruiting process once HR asks documents and shares link for backend investigation details to fillup?

I just finished a big jury trial with a senior partner (SP). There were co-parties w/separate counsel. SP mentally checked out, to the point that co-counsel was asking what SP was doing/if SP was okay. I ended up handling most everything. SP did a few parts but went rogue and did things that were offensive/risky/bad for client. It became clear that SP is not performing like SP used to and may be a liability. Do I tell someone at my firm? Don’t want to offend SP or cause drama, but I’m concerned.
