“While those high earners are very fortunate to be earning significantly more than the vast majority of the rest of the population, they don’t necessarily feel rich' Research found 46% of those earning over £125,140 are worried about financial stability
, otherwise I don’t think we’d have been able to afford to stay here.
My in-laws will pay half of the cost and I’ve been trying to save £1,000 a month towards it. I still don’t know if I might have to ask my dad to lend us an extra couple of thousand to get us over the line. Even going to friends’ weddings is expensive – there’s been a post-pandemic flurry and we’ve got five this year, not including our own. It’s a good £200-odd once you’ve factored in somewhere to stay.
In the past I liked to spend money on clothes – I’d buy designer menswear brands and think nothing of spending £100 or £200 on a jumper. I’ve stopped doing that altogether now, I’d rather find a bargain in the charity shop. I used to go to a personal trainer twice a week but I can only afford to go once a week now and I pay £30 a month to swim at the local leisure centre. I haven’t bothered to upgrade my phone for a long time – it’s an iPhone 8 – so I can just stay on a cheap tariff. Because I can’t work from home in my job, the TfL charges really rack up and I also buy breakfast and lunch at the office.

Availability and affordability of anticancer medicines at cancer treating hospitals in Rwanda - BMC Health Services ResearchBackground Availability and accessibility of anti-cancer medicines is the pillar of cancer management, and it is one of the main concerns in low-income countries including Rwanda. The objective of this study was to assess the availability and affordability of anticancer medicines at cancer-treating hospitals in Rwanda. Methodology A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at 5 cancer-treating hospitals in Rwanda. Quantitative data were collected from stock cards and software that manage medicines and included the availability of anti-cancer medicines at the time of data collection, their stock status within the last two years, and the selling price. Results The study found the availability of anti-cancer medicines at 41% in public hospitals at the time of data collection, and 45% within the last two years. We found the availability of anti-cancer medicines at 45% in private hospitals at the time of data collection, and 61% within the last two years. 80% of anti-cancer medicines in private hospitals were unaffordable while 20% were affordable. The public hospital that had most of the anti-cancer medicines in the public sector provided free services to the patients, and no cost was applied to the anti-cancer medicines. Conclusion The availability of anti-cancer medicines in cancer-treating hospitals is low in Rwanda, and most of them are unaffordable. There is a need to design strategies that can increase the availability and affordability of anti-cancer medicines, for the patients to get recommended cancer treatment options.
