without knowing your salary it's hard to calculate
but if I wasn't addicted to drugs and drink and didn't have a child I could live comfortably on what I earn.

I'm not going to say what it is...
In case it is significantly higher than a lot of other people get by on and I’m worrying unduly and people think I’m trying to be ‘Billy Big-Bollocks’ with the fancy job* and big salary.

*The job isn’t fancy, it’s in Financial Services

Maybe I ought to generalise a bit more.

Is it possible to live fairly comfortably on a salary within the following ranges?

20-30k
30-40k
40-50k

20-30 yes if you're careful
30-40 yes and to a reasonably high standard
40 and above: piece of piss

If it's the higher ranges then I doubt you'll get by on suits from George at Asda.
