Quoted By:
Average wage is £24k. After taxes that Iis 20k.
Then after applying the average cost of renting a single bedroom flat for solo living you have £10k left.
Now the energy bills have inflated to 4000.
£6k. The average cost of a car yearly, not including the purchase of a car is £3.6.
So this leaves the average single adult is left with £2.4k not including food and other expenses.
So. How are they supposed to progress upwards when after MANDATORY payments (only the car is optional if you stretch) They pocket barely over a grand a if nothing goes wrong, they have 0 debts and they don't go on holiday.
Do people not realise how bad it is?
