As Albert Einstein once said 'it's all relative'. To someone with a £600 overdraft you probably look well off. To a millionaire perhaps less so.

Does it really matter what you have in your bank. It is no one else's business, just yours.

If that's your disposable income (IE the money you have AFTER all bills,rent etc paid) then I would say yes it is a larger amount than most people where I am have to spend each month.
Mine was only ever about £100 a month and I was on £20k a year but our rent is expensive (although cheap for where we are) and nowadays it's more like £10 lol so £600 is a great amount to have left over each month for us!
So as others have said, it is all relative!

yes if you have no outgoings at all, and no if you have a massive house, two cars, all mod cons and an expensive wife...

Well done David G. Of course you are well off, most people are in debt. It is true the Queen has a little more, but at least your money has been honestly earned.

it depends what your out goings are and what other assets you have. £600 would be good going for me at the moment - I'm constantly in my over draft at the mo - paying for our wedding!

I could create a lasange for £600, so it's not a phenomenal sum.

I am going to go for no...

The average wage in the UK is about £24-26k depended on who you believe, which leaves a comfortable sum every month after outgoings.

At a guess, £600 is probably below averavge for a current account, but I doubt the average is much over £1000 - because having a lot more in there is just pointless given the interest rates you get off a current account.

no not really..

but just keep it there..don't' spend it on nonsense and then you'd def look well off.
