Monday Money Matters


The road winds, the sea stretches, the hills rise ... and so, apparently, does the disposable household income of those living in the Western Isles. It was up 5.1% last year, on par with the residents of West Cumbria (the Lake District) and a tad behind the 5.2% of the Scottish Borders. The details are in The Guardian, but no reasons are given. Could it be that the scenery is attracting the wealthy-not-at-work or the rich-to-retire to these parts of the UK?
