How much do you earn ?

Self employed so it varies a lot But I try to make sure I am happy which is a state of mind more than cash in the bank,
I meet people with loads of money in the bank (usually inherited) that are really miserable & bored & also people that rush around chasing the next big payday who never learn to relax & enjoy what they have.

Fair play to you. As I said to the guy who sells houses on here not so long ago, love it when people make a life for themselves.<br /><br />-- Thu Nov 11, 2010 8:56 pm --<br /><br />

£22k, and as someone else said, after the mortgage, bills, car expenses and whatever else seems to leak out of my account, i'm left with little. My Mrs earns £3k more than me and logic says we should be relatively comfortable, but she has her own mortgage, bills etc as well. We're in the process of selling her house, (2 up, 2 down, £69k if anyones interestes?!), but the market is shite at the minute. Bit of a nightmare at present. This is where my bitterness comes from about the ***** who won't work and who scrounge. I know for a fact some of those types will be far better well off than me, yet here are me and my mrs working hard to upkeep 2 houses and 3 kids. One day there will be only one winner, because as soon as that fucking house sells we will have a decent household income coming in, and thats when the good life begins.

Is there no chance of letting it out to a council tennant?
I will admit I don't know much about it but think you must be able to recoup £500 PCM which will almost be paying the mortgage

I earn far too much for the amount of work I do. It even means wifey doesn't have to work.

We let it out on a mates rates basis to one of her 'friends'. She took the piss though so we've learnt from that. The house is in Radcliffe, which isn't the most desirable of areas so if we let it out commercially it would be Housing Benefit tenants, which is a non starter really. Hopefully it will sell after xmas.
 
I earn an excellent daily rate but deliberately dont work that much as you can never buy back time. (especially where kids are concerned).

In the next couple of years I intend to hit the corporate sector a fair bit more where it should be up to a very tasty £/hour ratio ;-)
