Cost of Living in London

Nation destroyer Biden who has proved his trustworthiness by completely destroying the Afghanistan earlier has earned 2 more naive preys now to be able to slaughter soon and they are UK and Australia.

It should be a good show for the whole world to watch again after the recent Afghanistan destruction where Biden's next destruction heads this time either US directly or the other 2 unfortunate preys.

UK is much more smarter than the cunning fox Biden so shouldn't follow Biden's footsteps for self destruction and instead prepare to take over the superpower status from the US by showing the world that UK can be the hope of the world where there is no inflation and the money is trustworthy as much as gold unlike the US where Biden has been mercilessly robbing people's money through inflation tax corruptly even under the current pandemic period unlike never seen before throughout history so that the whole world shall dump all US dollar consequently very soon until US is completely ruined financially and then purchase UK pound to substitute the US dollar if the UK pound were trustworthy. The biggest opportunity in a lifetime is coming soon and the winner takes all.

As for US, there is no remedy as long as being manipulated by the communist tyrant Biden and consequently US is going to be destroyed by the freeloader Biden eventually just like what he did with the Afghanistan destruction irresponsibly.

Among the kingdoms, Japan imperial system, etc have done a good job to their own people by preventing inflation across their countries until recently so there is no inflation in Japan, etc unlike other corrupt countries led by the current untrustworthy US thief.

So it's very important to strictly deploy only our own race to monitor especially our most important central bank for the benefit of our own people just like Japan or else deploying other races such as middle eastern, Indian, Chinese, etc in our own central bank is like allowing probable terrorists and thieves to condemn our own beloved people which shouldn't happen for the greatest kingdom on earth.

London is so expensive and people there are living in poverty even though they earn a typical amount of 2000 pounds a month, London is awful, homeless people everywhere because the Gov is corrupt.

Best to move out and then pretend to be disabled, so you can earn money without ever having to work again.

I'm looking for something mid 20'ish of the feline persuasion.

Renting in London has its challenges. This is something all newcomers, or even long term residents experience. Price, location, size...these are all very important factors to consider. London is in demand, as a place to live and it makes it a very competitive city for flat hunting. It is also a large city, and a diverse one and choosing the right location for you is something that can take time. Personally I think the move towards flats and communities based around coliving are the next new thing in London. It takes away a lot of the stress involved with flat hunting- there are some great coliving companies with some great inventory and some great apartments. Generally rents include all bills, wifi; a lot of the complexes have co working spaces, community spaces, events and workshops. You don't have to deal with individual landlords, you don't have to deal with a lot of paperwork. It takes all the stress out of finding an apartment. There are so many coliving options in London- this one is one example, https://www.vondereurope.com/

Nicholas Mountbatten's corruption allowed to the current terrorist Myanmar military to seize the control of the whole Myanmar after WW2.

Japan fascist not only founded the terrorist Myanmar military but also looted together with the support of the terrorist Myanmar military to all the riches of Myanmar which was nurtured for decades to become the richest country in Asia under the great British rule.

Instead of destroying the terrorist Myanmar military easily after WW2, the traitor Nicholas Mountbatten sided with the terrorist Myanmar military probably due to being handsomely bribed by the terrorist Myanmar military to the extent of handing over the sovereignty right to the leader of the terrorist Myanmar military.

If Winston Churchill were still in power after WW2, the terrorist Myanmar military would certainly be destroyed completely for the treason and the fate of Myanmar would be completely different now for good under the British rule unlike the current fake democracy system implemented by the terrorist Myanmar military.

Instead of using an app to find supermarket prices find an app that offers discount creations due to covid19.

I made an app for iPhone, and it may be helpful, or not, I don’t know. The app allows you to compare the prices of supermarkets in the UK.
As it searches directly in their websites, you can save a list and update the prices in a different day.

Hi, I’m moving to the UK next week, will be staying in holland park and my university is in high Holborn. My accommodation is inclusive of electricity and internet bills, but I wanted to know what should I expect my monthly expenses to be in a city like london. I’m talking everything combined, groceries, take out, phone bill, laundry, tube daily, and daily expenses..

Mine include Purchasing and Supply chain management, Advanced Logistics and Operations management, Project management, and Business and Systems Analytics. Do we stand a chance?

Replying to Kriss : you will be perfectly fine with 50k in London, it's almost 20k more than the average salary.

Old people who rely on the encouragement of others to fight are not strong; those who are encouraged by others to struggle are simply cowards

Hi ,How much does an apartment with these properties cost to buy?
(1 bedroom)
(60 meter)
In a moderately good neighborhood
Your faithfully

All 1bhk are in the 1300-1800 range
Street food in the 6-10 gbp range
Mid level restaurants courses in the 10-18 range
Transportation is among the most expensive in Europe, expect to pay 13 gbp a day or 130 a month for the tube, Uber are ok for short trips but if you need to go to Stansted are 100 gbp, slow train to Manchester for 50 gbp
To live a very comfy life you need 80k+ gross a year

Hi everyone,

I got an offer of 89k GBP (gross, annual). I believe the net comes out at 5k per month.

I am not married but I have a girlfriend (whom I love very dearly) that I need to visit frequently back in Turkey (I believe this would cost me 300 GBP for traveling twice). I also have a fixed monthly cost of 400 GBP back in Turkey.

So, my disposable income is about GBP 4,300 per month. I would appreciate any feedback on the below (see if my math works out).

- I expect to pay 2,000 for rent (want to live alone in a 1br flat around Marylebone, walk to work)
- Utilities/internet/council tax cost 250
- Groceries 300
- Going out 4 times a month (dinner and movies for two, with the girlfriend of course) 300
- Breakfast/lunch or dinner during the week (at work, etc.) 400

So this leaves me with a monthly spend of 3,250, which leaves me with about a thousand pounds to spare each month. Does this math sound about right? Also, do you think I could ask my girlfriend to come with me?

As in, is my salary enough to support us both? She could get work after moving but in the worst case scenario. As you may have realized from my estimates above, I dont want to kill myself to save money, etc. I have been lucky enough to have lead a good life until now (27 years old and counting) and I want to keep the same standard. No vacations until she gets a job too I guess but that's okay :)

Appreciate any help, thanks a lot in advance.

Average Monthly Aftertax Salary should not be that low.
It should be at least 3000pounds for an average position.

Hi Everyone, am Lucy from USA,
This was how me and my Boyfriend became VAMPIRES. I got a guy from the internet called Mr. Barry who was a VAMPIRE so i told him that me and my boyfriend would love to become VAMPIRES so he asked me of my Name ,Country, Age ,State , address and in the next 3 days i got the blood sample through the DHL which me and my boyfriend took in the blood into our body and in the next 30 minutes we turned into a VAMPIRE so if you are interested in becoming a VAMPIRE. First: Vampires is not at all like in the movies or books, Sure. I understand. You are young; you have the whole world open to you. You can be anything that you choose if you apply yourself and try hard to work toward that goal. But being a vampire is not what it seems like. It’s a life full of good, and amazing things. We are as human as you are.. It’s not what you are that counts, but how you choose to be. Do you want a life full of interesting things? Do you want to have power and influence over others? To be charming and desirable? To have wealth, health, and longevity? contact the vampires creed today via email:vampirekingdome666@gmail.com

Ex. of London wages/salaries: unskilled worker, 40 hours per week- average gross salaries paid by employers 19K per year, employee will see 17K on payslip with a net pay (after deductions) of 15.5K
Semi-skilled, same as the above with 10-20% more money.
Skilled (ex. electricians)- average gross paid by employer 43K per year, on payslip 39K, net 30K.
Average in financial services- paid by employer 61k per year, on payslip 55K, net 40K.
Average, all salaries, London- paid by employer 39K per year, on payslip 35K, net 30K.

Site info is not reliable, average salary is much higher.

The U S shouldn't have answered the phone when London called begging the U S to save them from the BUZZ BOMBS of Germany especially since London never paid the U S for military help.

@Max Willow
Go to Rightmove.co.uk (relevant real estate site in UK), you can see what prices are in that area. Check crime stats, employment, ownership etc before you buy. If i were you i would buy a house, most flats are "lease" (ex. for 100 years) and you don't own the property. London has allot of boroughs were you have one or two nice streets surrounded by bad areas (ex. Elephant and Castle).

@Anonymous on Mar 19, 2019
Queen does not elect Parliament, does not control the executive, etc. Most of tax is spend on wealfare paid by those who produce (ie. not the people on "free stuff"). For example, 75% of budget is paid in by 20% of active individuals, so they are outvote every time because people on "free" healthcare, schools, housing etc have more votes at any election.

London will always be very expensive as long as the queen reins supreme over everything.Very high unemployment, can't drive my car to work gasoline too high.Need I say more? Prices here should be doubled on everything.

Are you tired of being human, having talented brain turning to a vampire in a good posture in ten minutes, Do you want to have power and influence over others, To be charming and desirable, To have wealth, health, without delaying in a good human posture and becoming an immortal? If yes, these your chance. It's a world of vampire where life get easier,We have made so many persons vampires and have turned them rich, You will assured long life and prosperity, You shall be made to be very sensitive to mental alertness, Stronger and also very fast, You will not be restricted to walking at night only even at the very middle of broad day light you will be made to walk, This is an opportunity to have the human vampire virus to perform in a good posture.

Hi All,

I recently got a good offer to move to London from Amsterdam. Gross pay of £170k and I am looking to live in Central London where I work. I am in my mid 20's and single.
Any suggestions on the locations to live near Buckingham street is appreciated.

Warm Regards,
Laz

@Davide

Hi Davide - Thanks so much for your detailed response. Helps a lot. Lends perspective as well. I do have a few more questions. Hope that's okay.
(1) My office is in Canary Wharf. Where do you think i should stay? I would prefer a shared accommodation (not more than 2 or 3 ppl max). I am willing to spend 1K for rent and utilities
(2) In your apartment, do you have a kitchen (where you can cook), refrigerator, washing machine, etc? Or do you need to purchase them separately?
(3) On an average how much will other expenses groceries, food (i will have lunch and dinner outside), phone bill, wifi, gym (average gym), cost per month, metro rail? Will 1K suffice for all this?

Thanks,
Sashank

@Davide

Hi Davide - I went through your comment below and i am really interested. I might move to London soon and my take home salary will be the more or less what you have mentioned (4.3K). I am given to understand by my friends in London that i can probably end up saving 10-15% of my salary. However, you have mentioned that you are saving 3K!! Now i would really like to know the break up of 850 pounds for rent and utilties. What is your room size, how far is it from citi center and what is the rent you are paying? Could you please help me with this? Thanks.

Sashank

Hi

I'm living in London for the past some time. Please feel free to ring me up on 07774646958 if you have any queries. I'll be happy to help with what information I have. I'm a bachelor here, so have got all the time in the world to clarify your queries.

@Ed Hoar
You are the ignorant and ill informed. If a employer pays a gross of 39k wile employee gets (on payslip you see 35k) a net of 22k and he needs to share rent, go out as little as possible, use public transport, don't buy "expensive" stuff (ex. nice holidays) and not saving half of his net income what is the point of moving to a new country/city. To do all that gross income needs to be 50k.
@All
"Central London" it's big, most of it (except posh areas) are council estates with allot of dodgy people who live on benefits. Public transport is overcrowded (literally), especially at peak times, wile most infrastructure is old, some of it really old (ex. Bakerloo line), comfort it's out of the question wile prices are not cheap. Roads are full of potholes and insufficient for number of cars, most of tax in UK is spend on "vulnerable people" who have the right to vote (talk about conflict of interest), etc etc
Safety not a priority to our Socialist Muslim mayor (religious terrorism is normal according to him), we are not as bad as "gun free zones" Venezuela but it is not as safe (or clean) as other big cities (ex Tokyo).
If you need to share a flat/house (some share a room), eat fast-food like chicken & chips and use a bicycle (better to walk if possible) you are probably better off were you live now.
PS: for couples with children it's even worse

Hi! this is my reply to Mukesh Sharma.
Mukesh, I am also planning to live in UK, to earn money n become rich.
Shall we go both togather n work togather?
Right now m studying about UK on Google.
If u read my message, than please contact me on whatsapp > +918888856335

Hi, I have lived in London for 15 years so ignore most of the comments below as they are very ill informed.
I earn £2100 after tax.
Often you will find rooms to rent that include all bills, such as council tax/ water/ internet etc. I’m the centre of London ( just south of oxford street), I pay £800 a month inclusive of all bills to share a flat with one other person. Admittedly this is a very good deal and whilst you could of course pay more, generally bargain on between £600 and £1000 per month for a double room in a flat/ house share, including bills, zone 1-2. A friend and his partner live in Belsize Park ( Zone 1/2 border, upmarket area) and pay £1850 per month for a one bedroom flat, including all bills.
Transport- the underground system is expensive but actually very easy to navigate and contrary to other comments infinitely better than say New York’s subway. Zone 1-2 monthly pass; £ 131.
But: I cycle everywhere and many people do, we have a good cycle network currently being built at huge cost. Remember, London is a flat city so cycling is a great and free way to commute.
Food: Londoners in an average wage generally will only eat out max a couple of nights a weeek, the culture is more drinks related which probably is a reason why the casual restaurant scene isn’t so great. A pint ( half litre approx ) of beer will cost £3.50-5 generally.
To summarise, You can definitely live in London as a single person on approx £35k a year ( before tax) if you are happy to share a flat and go out a few nights a week. To live alone and centrally ( zone 1/2), eat out 5 times a week, good gym/ personal trainer etc bargain on 75k onwards.
Now, on the minimum wage ( currently £6.70 per hour) you will have a very hard time unless you work 60 + hours a week. You will live far out, have long commutes to work and find life more difficult. At this bracket working in central London restaurants with high customer turnover and regular tips would be your best option; you would be paid minimum wage plus if your lucky the same again in tips ( Londoners will tip 10 percent generally for good service) bringing your hourly wage to approx £12. If you are fluent in English and well presented, try your luck getting work as a lettings negotiator ( real estate) and you should be looking at £20k to £25k starting salary per year, including commission. With a driven work ethic, qualifications and even experience are often not required, plus this will rise depending on how good you are to potentially £50k.
Good luck and make the city work for you!

Myanmar is tremendously daring and shameless to the extent of fabricating the following made-up news which is clearly against the weakest and helpless Rohingya currently being genocided by culprit Myanmar.

Myanmar Rohingya militants massacred Hindus, says Amnesty
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-44206372

It is absolutely unlogical even just to think the most helpless, almost annihilated Rohingya carrying out a massacre upon Hindu on top of themself almost being wiped out by Myanmar.

Myanmar should not be fooling around with other nation spreading fake and made-up news because other nations are not foolish neither to be easily cheated by the made-up news of culprit Myanmar.

Everyone should take a moment to feel in the shoe of Rohingya currently suffering helplessly who have clearly no future, thanks to the inhumane atrocities carried out by culprit Myanmar.

Time to unleash immediate punishment actions upon the greatest Evildoer Myanmar by showering it with the first punishment step of comprehensive sanctions on Myanmar.

Hi this is Mukesh from India,i just want to move in London,i m a single person,can u advice me that how much money is require to survive in London.

hey everyone i am a student in the US going to go study abroad in the UK and was wondering how much money will i need to stay there i was thinking at least having $25,000 or do you think this is too much or too little?

A note to anyone planning to come to London: please don't, we are full. Thank you.

If your wife will not find a job those are peanuts. 65k would be a fair package

im living in lubango and here there is no crime its peacefull place

@adam

Also, make sure you try to arrange with your landlord a fixed price for 2 years as typically landlords will increase the rent after one year.

I have been living in london for the past 20 years and rented for about half of that time, and it happens every single time.

It is a nice way to save money if you know you will be staying for more than a year!

Hi!

Can you advise on what kind of life a net (after taxes) 50k per year buys in London? What are the tradeoffs of a bigger flat in terms of distance from zone 1? Where should one look for a bigger (50sqm+), cheaper accomodation? Is it a viable option to live a bit farther but pay less for the flat? Thanks in advance!

@#Dev, I do not want to sound pessimistic.... but if you are the only income-bearer in you family of 4 with 2 kids, it looks like 135k gbp will not be enough. Remember that taxation on income in the UK is 40%. You would have to live in the outskirts very far away from London city. The good part of that is that you will probably get a 60sqm flat for the same amount that you would get a 40sqm flat in London.

Hope it helps!

Remember you also have to pay bills, council tax, medical insurance, retirement plan, school, etc.

For one person living alone, gbp 135 gross = 81 net of taxes would be OK ish.... without any savings.

@ #Andrew on Nov 10, 2017
People on minimum wage live in "housing estates" and rely on "benefits" (like child tax credits, working tax credits etc) + the "free stuff" like dental treatment :)

With the right to vote one can "outvote" the creative & hard working, tax them to death and make them pay "their fair share" to support the "democratic majority"...LOL.

UK it's socialist(Frankfurt School/Fabian) with some capitalist niche areas , now you know the truth.

PS: 6 million people (UK) age between 18-60 never worked yet they have free housing, free health, free school, etc + trillions of unfunded liabilities like state pensions (Ponzi scheme)...HEDGE accordingly.

Hey I am planning to relocate to London from India (gurgaon)
I am receving a package of 85K all inclusive of bonus, insurance, pension etc.
I plan to come with my wife and a 4 month old child.
Is it worth to relocate?
Would I be able to sustain a conformtable life and save?

Hello guys,

I need advice from you people.

I have offer from one company in Gatwick, can you please let me know what is average cost of living there in Gatwick, i m single but i have to support my family from there. What will be my minimum cost per month?

#Anonymous on Sep 25, 2017
In a nice area (usually it's NOT city center) with clean streets, no crime, good schools and live alone in a house(not flat) with your family (quality of life) you need to travel around 50-80 minutes away from job (unless working from home). A revenue of 4k a month after tax if you are employed (self employed is different) it's what you need. Employer needs to pay around 6.5k before tax (700 pounds not on the pay slip because tax man says it's "employer national insurance", LOL)...you need to be a high skilled productive employee to have that kind of wage/salary.
Our current socialist Muslim mayor wants to ban Uber and says that religious terrorism is "a normal thing in a big city" so the future is not good.

Long story short NO (2270), it is not enough , unless you want to share rent and live in a "shitty" area^

^From a "western" quality of life perspective, not 3rd world (witch we can have on most of the "planet").

Hi Guys,

I have been offered a job with T2 visa in London with annual salary 35K. Is it a good amount as I will be moving with Family. ( me + wife + 1Yr child). As I saw from many websites, my take home salary would be around 2270 after tax. Will it be too tight ?

Thanks in advance.

Akshay

Thanks Sam!
I would be moving alone - so no family involved. Would you say that 35k for a young professional (26 y.o.) should be enough to start with?

Hi there!
I was offered a job as a structural engineer in the outskirts of London. I have 3 years experience in other EU country but no UK experience. The salary is about 30k. Isn't that to low? I mean where I live now, I get +40% than national average and keep 35-40% in savings.

Every comment is appreciated :)
