@thisismace.space: a traditional london salary does not align with how much it actually costs to live and ENJOY YOUR LIFE here #londonlife #americaninlondon #movingtolondon #londoner #costofliving
Just saw a video of a man say he turned down a job at JP Morgan in London for 33k and accepted a 125k job in Seattle. Same role

I really don’t understand how we got this far and still haven’t done anything about it. Every year we get a bit more money but then inflation comes and it doesn’t even matter anymore. Like what’s the point of it.

This!! I moved to London on £20k a year in 2018, my salary has gone up a lot since then but my standard of living doesn’t feel like it has AT ALL. I still feel broke, everything has gone up astronomically it’s insane

I’m an American nurse who lives in London (married to a Brit) and I work for the NHS. I make £37,000 here, I would make about $80,000-100,000 in the US.

They think their cheap health insurance makes up for it. Like, many of us now have free health insurance with our employers.
