I'm on less now than I was two years ago, was £70 ph (40 hours pw) over 6 months. Back on permy wages now, hourly rate works out nothing like that.

That much when you were 25?

I think I'm going into the wrong profession... :wink:

I agree with Vladek. What's the point in discussing money? If money was the main factor, I wouldn't be going for the job I'm currently being processed for. So long as you have enough to live comfortably at your desired level, what's the big deal? There's always going to be someone who 'claims' to earn more.

Exactly, it's not a big deal, so why hush it up?

Credit cards are the work of the devil. At least you're on the property ladder though, at the moment, I can only see inheritance as being my way forward. :biggrin:

Luckily I have grand plans and age on my side though.

Yep, getting on the propery ladder early is the key, though it can be difficult after graduation if you have to move around the country quite a lot.

Got £7.00 an hour this summer working as temp.
Usually £4.63 at cinema (which I don't mind....being a temp is mind-bustingly boring)

But hopefully I'm going to uni to study medicine, and so might earn a bit more than that in years to come. :biggrin:

24, I'm only 26 now. Contract rates in IT were well high then and jobs plentiful. Market is rather crap now.

Just for curiosity's sake, what do you exactly do Piginapoke?

I work at asda and I think the pay rate there is pretty decent! I'm under 18 and get £4.86ph and when I'm 18 it goes up to £5.23ph and it goes up a good 50p ph every new tax year which is good! Also, if the store hits its targets which it usually does then we get a excellent bonus at christmas of between £160 + £240 depending on if you are full-time or part-time and your average hours throughout the year.
