For a professional, that's a few days of work. Over 5 years, after tax etc etc, it's still a blip for what is effectively one's main tool.
An IT pro must invest in three primary tools: chair, monitor, and laptop. A £5K budget to amortize over 5 years is fair game, and in the grand scheme of things (traders etc) is actually very very low.
If it's to watch movies and play games, then of course it's insanely pricey; but then you don't really need 32GB, nor a MBP in the first place.

Nice stealth brag (:
I'm an intermediate dev in a first world country with a salary that locals would call good. That's over a months work for me.
Worth noting the 32GB option is only available on the 15" model and costs £2,700+
