Poll started 31 August 2021
We asked this question last summer, but with restrictions continuing to ease and life for many slowly returning to 'normal', this week we want to get another snapshot of the nation's finances.
First, add up the value of everything you own, from properties and cars to savings and pension funds. Then, deduct anything you owe, such as any outstanding mortgage and other debts (EXCLUDING student loans). Where do you end up?

Surprisingly, I come out on the very high end. But that's purely down to property value, and as I need somewhere to live, it's just paper value. My actual value I consider to be savings and a few pieces of good jewellery I could pawn in an emergency - and those totals are very much lower. Am excluding my 12 year old car from my value as its resale value is a few hundred but it gets me around safely and I expect to have it for at least another five years.0
