Aaron, you need to get any job just so you can improve your ability to work with other people. That's your Achille's Heel.

Is that even a real job anymore?
Sign on for benefits or you'll blow through irreplacable resources,
You don't have to necessarily sign on for Jobseekers, can't you just get housing benefit or summink?
Take up crime. Even if you get caught, you'll come out of prison with a degree.
I think a thousand a fortnight is approximately average but that's before Tax & NI
To take home £1000 a week you'd need to earn an annual salary of approx £ 77,428
£ 1000 a fortnight would be approx £ 34.883 per year
and £ 1000 a month you'd need an annual salary of approx 14,604.
Quote: David Carmon @ May 22 2010, 8:35 PM BSTFor me on minimum wage, I would have to work 40 hours a week to earn £937.6 before tax.
It would take around 42 hours a week to make just over £1000.
After tax you would prob need to top 50 to keep above it.
You're on 50 grand a year? Nice.
To get an approximate hourly salary on a 37-40 hour week. Take 3 zeros off the end and halve the figure.
e.g. £30,000 PA=£15 P/H.
I suppose salary is all relative. Especially with regards to property values.
I get paid in satisfaction. 
I get paid in praise and joy.

As long as you take more time to spend £1000, than you take you earn it, you should be happy

Profound and Dickens said the same thing.
I always learn to earn as much as you want or live within your means.
I'm firmly in the second bracket.
