50% is about what my wife and I pay here in the US. Between federal & state taxes which come out of our paychecks and local real estate tax on our house, the total take was just under 50% of our income last year and just over 50% the year before that. And we're upper middle class at best, carrying a lot of debt and not remotely wealthy. Admittedly, most material goods are cheap here, and sales & fuel taxes are low, but otherwise you're not doing as bad as you think.Dave
