    Budget 2K or more a year for training. And budget time for training, too (this is the hardest part).
    Improve your maths to university level, if you can.
    Every 10 years take a sabbatical and do a rigorous and deep course of training in something you like.

    And most importantly, do what you enjoy and the money will follow. Not the other way round.

              GCSE Maths is a piece of piss.
