      Maybe you'd like to fund my plan B

            Sorry was distracted. Yes it should read 2012 you are correct.

            I just went through it and thought 20k these days seems a really low number indeed.

            You can tell that almost a decade ago people thought the market was bad and contracting was bad so hope that gives some strength to others on here

              There will always be times when the market is bad for some sectors and skillsets

              I don’t remember it ever being this bad before - JobServe has always had 10000 jobs listed not the 5000 it currently has
              merely at clientco for the entertainment

                It's not relevant to permanent employees obsessed with what everyone else earns.

                  Lol how did you even find this thread!

                  Interesting though, a £300k warchest 8 years ago would have quite easily been spent by now if someone relied entirely and only on these funds.
