The rich grow richer and the poor grow poorer. I was thinking exactly what Needbmwpartzz said.
It's probably largely down to housing costs for one thing these days. 10 years ago 200k got you a nice house. These days that same house is 350k to 400k. I have a nice car but I don't own my own home and I have no money for a deposit to even start a mortgage.
Then there's the cost of fuel and co2 taxes.
The fun is slowly being squeezed out of life.
