I dont get nowhere near that and probably neither do a lot of other members of accyweb. They also say a couple with 2 kids needs £370 a week plus their mortgage/rental payments and a pensioner couple needs £201 a week.

An acceptable standard of living for me is having some money left at the end of the week and not some week left at the end of the money.
