    So the majority on this board are white, married, female with kids living in the SE of England with a Degree.

    Is this a reflection of the group of people who are proactive in money saving matters.

    Probably not news to the Financial Organisations Advertising agencies.

    ...except for the region I live in and I'm not quite full time. All my other answers fit with the most popular answers.

    I need to go out and do something wildly unexpected - actually I'm not really surprised at being "normal"!

    Same here, although if you take my 30 hours a week of paid work, and 10+ hours a week of voluntary work I am technically full time.

    Also I'm not normal on religion (I'm Christian - other) and crisp flavour, my second favourite flavour is the most popular.

    Got to say, I expected there to be more males than females.

    Must admit ,in view of my experiences of questions and answers in the forums, I also expected the majority to be male.

    When it came to Employment status, I had to put part-time as it was the closest thing to 'Casual labour on zero hour contract' that I could see.
    Now that would also be an interesting statistic. Just what proportion of employed people are on these dratted zero-hour contracts?

    I've got a range of food intolerances including potato, so I can't actually eat crisps.........

    It would have been nice to see Pagan given it's own tick-box under religion:( - there's a lot of us about, you know!;)

    And I dislike crisps._pale_

  • I had to say married no children although I have two - they're just not under 18, but I'm sure they have an impact on the amount of money I have available!!!:o

    Oh no - have I answered this incorrectly then?! :eek:

    I'm married with two "kids" who are 18 (in full time education) and 22 - both still live at home.

  • What about us crinklies who would like to work (albeit part time) but end up looking after grandchildren, so their children can work to afford houses etc?.............
