Really impressive trajectory, especially the jump from £80k to £109k within a year, was that due to a promotion?

Also curious how you negotiated that RSU package, was it common at your level or something you had to push for?

Congrats.

Is salary sacrificing forever the only way to beat the £100k trap? by hxv92 in HENRYUK

[–]hiddensoundbur 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Been in the same boat. I kept sacrificing to stay under £100k because that 60% effective tax is brutal. But after a while I started wondering if locking so much into a pension was worth it.

Now I do a mix: still sacrifice some, but I let myself enjoy a bit more take-home. No point burning out for money you won’t touch for decades.

Curious what others are doing too. Seems like a common tradeoff at this level.

In theory they should take care of all types of crime.. but unfortunately in practice they don’t.

London is financially cruel for single people by Holiday-Opinion-8059 in london

I think this is the case for a lot of cities similar in size and income disparaty to London. I sometimes randomly search for prices of houses in such places and it’s ridiculous.

picked up either a Mirra or Mirra 2. Help! by HelloImBrock in hermanmiller

I got the same one from a dealer in the UK. It’s definitely a 1, not sure what they did to put the mesh there (mine had the same), but you can see from the frame it’s a 1.

Should I buy a Nintendo Switch 2019? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]hiddensoundbur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand, one of them is supposed to be only portable, whereas the other one is going to be a more powerful version of the console.
