| Bearded 80k shouty bloke on question time last night on 16:53 - Nov 22 by Butterbing |
you would have to look at the person earning £90000 and their circumstances. I’m assuming, although it had not been mentioned so far, that this person has a spouse or partner that doesn’t utilise their personal allowance. It is there to be used. Why could they not work and earn some tax-free income? It’s not great tax-planning but you also have to consider circumstances might mean that they are unable to work. |
They may chose not to work because they maybe wouldn’t have to, what with £80k being a substantial salary and all that and plenty for two to live off modestly. Not that it would go far looking after a family of 4 in middle England. I could buy Merthyr with £80k though!
I do find it strange we’re have a discussion around whether £80k is a top salary. It obviously is. Household income is important too of course, but a slightly different issue. |  |
