Sperm donor. They need some new dirty mags though (same old same old), and the cubicles are a bit small for my, er, needs.

Does it pay well, or at all? Do they supply any pot noodles?

Suprised there's a shortage of donors if they're paying blokes to wink. Sounds like an ideal source of income for students.

Maybe there's the fear that one day the CSA (or whatever they're renaming it to) will be onto them for maintenance for all the children they fathered and know nothing about.

So what are peoples plan B? Just curious. To be honest this is my only plan, to continue contracting and accumulate as much cash as possible to be able to live on in retirement which will hopefully be earlier than most permies.

Contrary to other posts I have my own business (Ltd company) I'm in control of when I work although I intend to grab as much business as possible but also take time out when I need to.

I like the fact of changing clients regularly, meeting different people, experiencing different work cultures and being exposed to different business areas, which is all good for a PM.

Can I assume from the previous posts that contracting is just a means to and end for most people, ie working towards plan b?

IMO The thing is IT contractors are doomed. In a few years it is gonna be a few major players ( like now ) and all indian techies working for what you don't want to think about. So IT is a sinking ship. Get out to a real biz asap , be it IT biz.
