[ThirskMan]

Can anyone tell me what I should be earning (based in North Yorkshire) per hour for enough to pay my way once me and my bird get hitched (about a years time)?

We will go straight into a mortgage (£125000 by then?), and will need to run a car each, no kids straight away though (phew! I'd be knackered). Although she will be on about £14000 - 15000 by then), Which should help!

Any one have any idea?

Hi Thirsk

A word of caution. Are you slef-employed? If you've recently become self-employed, the mortgage people will likely want to see three years accounts before giving a mortgage. I came across this problem a few years ago when I was starting out. Have a chat with a mortgage advisor, although be careful, they promise the earth and sometimes they don't deliver   This was also my experience.

Hi Thirskman
                  I think this will be impossible for anyone to answer because they don't know your personal circumstances. Best get advice from your accountant
