When I came back I had more money than before I left as I earned more money for that week off than I spent on it.
Ah. Permiedom. Paid holidays
On the other hand, had you worked as a contractor when you were younger (I'm assuming you've always been perm) you would have earned more and saved more. This accumulated nest egg invested in shares would have provided dividend income that might have paid a greater amount* than the cost of your holiday during the week.

The one thing thing he has always been is a total chunt.

HTH
I am the ULTIMATE contractor. I am a god among contractors. I piss more experience than the vast majority of contractors have ever had. 39 gigs in 22 years, interview to offer almost 100%.
I have ascended from contracting to being a Snr Executive with all of the trappings and money that brings, and technically could stop and retire at any time now.
I'm just a little bit too young and frankly I'd get bored.
I'm full of piss and have been kicked off more sites than the vast majority of contractors have ever had. 39 sites in 22 years, almost never completed a project successfully.
I technically could stop and retire at any time now because I am a multimillionaire property mogul, if you exclude the fact that everything I "own" is interest only with the bank and I've no idea how I'll pay it back.
I'm just a little bit too much of a fantasist and frankly I wouldn't know reality if it ripped my arm off and slapped me round the face with the soggy end

No lack of self confidence then!
At risk of being ridiculed for asking a serious question, do you have:
1. A genuine passion for IT, and/or
2. High self discipline, and/or
3. High ability?
