You're rich if you earn £70,000 a year 00:08 - Apr 22 with 9361 views | Glyn1 | That's according to the Labour Party anyway. Apparently that puts you in the top 5 per cent of wage earners in this country. Sounds right to me but people on Radio 5 have been whinging that they get that and are just average. Struggling in fact. Any thoughts? | |

Not sure people are moaning about struggling on that. Point being that it certainly doesnt make you "rich" these days, especially in London and the SE. Why penalise these people for doing ok? | |

You're rich if you earn £70,000 a year on 07:29 - Apr 22 with 4074 views | E20Jack | 70k a year is certainly not rich. The rent on my place is 4 figures a month and it is a normal 2 bed apartment in London. I don't think people realise until they live here. 70k a year in Swansea is comfortable, but rich? I wouldn't say so. | |

You're rich if you earn £70,000 a year on 09:23 - Apr 22 with 3801 views | exiledclaseboy | I'd say £70k per year household wage in South Wales would make you comfortably well off. Not rich. The same amount in London would barely make you comfortable. Obviously much depends on individual circumstances. £70k for a family with three kids will not go as far as it will for a single person living alone. | |

Richie, I'm far from envious, I'm not money orientated, I earn half of what I earned working in the Met and never been happier, I love my job, wouldn't swap it for double the wages Like I said compared to me, good luck to those that earn it, but to say that you struggle on that amount us an insult to many many people | |

You get one up arrow for that. I got 2 down arrows for saying the same thing - ironically one of them was the same person! My fat fingers seems to have rectified that though I'm afraid. Apologies. [Post edited 22 Apr 2017 10:15]

The sun, the mail preach envy and hate, JC hadn't made the housing market what it is, that goes back to you know who and then this current govt/ successive govts who alow private landlords drive up prices to ridiculous prices, I for one don't envy youngsters today starting out in the housing market. At least JC is prepared to take this on and at least try to make housing affordable | |

Point being spectacularly missed. Defining someone as "rich" based upon a specific value where different geographical locations within the UK have different costs of living is only something a really stupid person would do. | |
