I feel your pain hun, I did care for a few years and wondered if I really made any money half the time with maintain cars, food if I couldn't go home, other expenses. I started doing something that pays far far better but most of the time isn't that nice. I'm not sure which makes me more miserable xx

It sounds okay but after tax / NI is only around £100 a month.

Inflation is around 9% in the uk so you need that to keep up with costs.

I got an uplift of 20% on my basic and 50% increase to my bonus and then a further 7.4% cost of living on my basic so am very happy and motivated

3.1% which on my state pension equates to a rise of £27 per calender month.

Fortunately in addition of a number of private pensions I do also have independant means which all helps to cushion the recent across the board price rises.

I got a pay rise of £1200 per year, but it tips me into a higher tax band, and with the increase in NI, the increased mandatory pension contribution and removal of my wfh allowance as the office is now open and available, I actually take home £20 per month less than before my pay rise.

And that's before the extra £150 per month in utilities, higher petrol and food costs and council tax... *sigh*

Maybe look at saving into AVC if you can, which could bring you down to the lower tax band, hence saving on tax and also better pension later on.

No payrise this year but the automotive industry is on its arse a bit and hubby has only been there since end of April last year.

Can't complain, hubbys job does pay 27% more than his old one. Plus he managed to find it during his garden leave period so he got a little bit of a payout from redundancy from his old job last year.

Happy for now, though keeping his ear to the ground for openings in the financial services industry. They offer very good employer contributions to pensions.

We are just about to be balloted for strike action, they have tried to split the work force by offering £1500 across the board which would range between 8% for the lowest paid down to 2.2% for the highest.

You can’t knock the senior team on their thinking especially when 80% of the work force have been on less than 5 years = the biggest rise for them so hopefully they will join us in voting for action instead of thinking it’s a good deal.

About £2k. Also, my last job had a company car which I had some residual benefit-in-kind payment added to my tax bill, which has now been paid off, adding a further £30 per month take-home on top of my rise.

I don’t get it yet as I’m still in my probation period - but mine will go up 63p ph in July. I’ll start paying pension contributions then though - so my take home pay will be less than it is now.

I’ve only 13 years left to work though and virtually nothing in pensions/savings though - so I’ll be putting away as much as I can once the kids are less dependent. Xx
