I think you have a problem with reality.
The UK average being around 40,000 I am told is a decent wage for your levels of skills and education. The truth is that many have aquired a taste for a living standard that needs to be fed by 50-60000.
You are living beyond your means and catch up by working all hours god gives.
You are selfish and over rate yourselves. Its a reality check that is required not a larger paycheck
