It seems that once you hit around 80k and then all the way to 100k net salaries are not very different in terms of take home.

What are peoples thoughts on this. Does it become more about enjoyment in a role as opposed to pay towards those salary ranges. Is there sense of frustration that despite higher salary, actual take home not significantly different.

I’d say this much truer to >100k if paye.

I done see the taxation of earning over 100k worth it for the sacrifices made in doing (time / stress) so I always endeavour to earn around 100k. I don’t wish to lose the tax free element of my tax code so stick any overs into pension towards the end of tax year.

I don’t think there’s any implications 80-100k that I know about.

If your on 80k gross vs 90k gross, take home net pay is not much different though after you do pension deductions

Take a salary of 85k vs a salary of 100k and the net is not much different. Remember pension deductions.

Ah I’m on a DB scheme so I don’t think that impacts me.

Don't make any, your choice.
And it's not really a deduction, it's a tax free lay away

Even if you do not do pension, NI, Tax and student loan to consider leading to net pay not being that much different

OP - why are you starting so many topics all around what is essentially the same thing?

Could you contain it all to one topic?

Yep. NI does not really change since you are already into the 2% rate, so it's 40% Income tax on 20k, i.e. 8k, which leaves 12k a year, which is, as you say, £1000 a month,

i.e. 20k gross, 12k net. No real difference at all then.

It could be you see very little extra money each month.

Hypothetically....

On £80k. £30k into pension to avoid 40% tax rate.

On £100k. £40k into pension. Now you have £10k taxed at 40%, and depending on family, you might be repaying all the child benefit.

True but that is without thinking of pension deductions, student loan etc
