Have you been spying on us?
Someone's been spying on us... My wife and I are both 30-somethings, living in the SE, both work in IT, have mobiles, 4 laptops, 5 TV's, she drives a VW and I pick up my BMW next week! - Oh yes we both bank online
Dave Smith
I always knew I was a misfit!
I'm too old, live too far north, don't own a mobile phone and definitely do not want a German car. I do however own a television targeting three digital satellites, so there is some cause for concern. Maybe it's time to retire, put on my flat-cap and tend my small-holding.
Martin Love
WRONG!
I'm not 25 until August and I live in Stoke.... but you got me on the rest!
Leon Young
Wrong (again)
I am female
I am over 45(just)
I live on my own
I don't drive a Ford
I don't want to drive an Audi, give me a Merc cabriolet any day
I have 2 mobile phones
I don't bank on line
Delighted to have it confirmed that there is little that is average about me!
Christine Donovan
Wrong (again, again)
I am 18, don't drive, don't have a laptop - YET. I am single and have no children, but I do live in the South-East, have a mobile phone and bank online!
Guy O'Malley
Different!
Female, blonde, 45 going on 35.
Drive a green vauxhall. PC owner and laptop, and mobile phone (like almost everyone these days).
Live in Scotland with my two cats and rent my flat
Crystin Slade
Now I'm depressed!!
I am 28 years old. The only reason I got into this business is so I could retire at 30 without a PC in a hot country with a nice beach. Now you tell me that I have to wait until I am 45...

Sounds like me...
Sounds like me. I'm 28, drive an Audi TT, desire a 911, own 3 TV's, own a flat in Chiswick, etc. etc..
More importantly looking at ways that enable me to retire early!!
Mark Littlewood
Not average at all...
Mean median or mode? You guys most definitely are not average - the UK stat for TV ownership is 99 per cent so I guess you must all be so ahead of the times, you've ditched the TV in favour of a laptop and a video card?
