Are you one of the UK's top earners but still don't feel like Scrooge McDuck diving into a pool of gold coins? You're not alone! Just 21% of high earners feel rich, leaving 79% in a tragic state of financial confusion. But fear not, there are ways to remind yourself just how well-off you are.
Share your bank statements
Feeling poor with six figures in the bank? Compare your savings with someone whose balance only stays positive for a few days each month. It's sure to lift your spirits!
Tell a tale of woe
Start recounting your life's challenges, like paying off a mortgage or hoping your parents' house covers their care. When people ask if this is really your life, just nod and smile.
Reassure them they had to go private
Ever wondered if paying £70,000 a year for school makes you a twat? Hearing about the public school experience will quickly console you.
Crash your car into theirs
A gentle reminder of your wealth can come from a Fiat Punto crashing into your Jaguar. As you survey the damage, you'll realize just how lucky you are.
Mug them
Nothing says 'appreciate what you have' like a little theft. Losing a luxury item will make you grateful for insurance claims and the wealth you still have.
Post a copy of The Sun through their letterbox
Nothing levels the playing field like a tabloid newspaper. The mere sight of it will remind you of the comforts of your high-status life.
