    Difficult to guess but I definitely made them more than £10,000.

    £46,000 after all my costs assuming I'm fully utilised but I accidentally voted £100K+.

    I happen to know approximately what I cost my company in terms of salary, benefits, employers NI, overhead staff (e.g. HR) etc

    Fcuk their profit, they're exploiting my labour;)

    My role doesn't neccessarily have solely quantifiable benefits to it.

    I don't know how to do a poll, how about we ask how much people contribute (through work and/or personal life) to society - especially after lord turners recent comments.
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    As I havn't worked for anyone other than myself for 12 years plus these figures are a little ancient,

    but in my best year I was paid just under 3% of my nett profit for the Bank (and I was paid £3XX,XXX.XX)

    P.S. in my worst year I was probably paid about 110% of my net profit, which led to a very 'strained' face to face with the boss !!!!
