    Jump off the rat-race and stop competing with those who are still on it, and your life could become much better.

    You could buy a home in most countries for a sum that many contractors could find in cash: not a 3-bed etc in the UK with garage that you fill with all that stuff that you're not quite sure you'll ever have a use for, a garden that you never find the time to do, in a location where you're paying 1/3 extra just for the supposed convenience of a railway station for your 45-minute commute being "only" 20 minutes walk away; but a home in a place where you can live your life.


    PS have I? Not yet.....

      Thanks

      This turned out to be something of a mammoth thread!

      Thanks to you all for your comments, I hope you liked the article on yesterday's front page.

      But also apologies to SallyAnne for missing the 'e' and to GingerJedi for not attributing the opening quote - I fixed that for you so rest happy that your fame will not be diminished.

      Cheers

        Where's my quote about the UK being full of alien reptilian shape-shifters? Shoddy work, Will.

          If you thought it was a subject that would attract the readership's interest, I'd say you were proved right.

            "I'm more of a warrior than you'll ever be. I believe in the class war. I believe in the battle of the sexes. I believe in my tribe. I believe in the righteous, inteligent clued-up section of society against the brain-dead moronic masses as well as the mediocre, soulless bourgeoisie. I believe in punk rock. In northern soul. In acid house. In mod. In rock and roll. I also believe in pre commercial righteous, rap and hip hop. Thats my manifesto"

              Hang on, that was another thread. Sorry.

              It wasn't me anyway.

                Well I arrived back in Australia 2 weeks ago, scored a management role with a small, growing company at the top of their game and even got a corner office

                I took a big pay cut from my UK contracting wage, but I'm living rent and mortgage-free and enjoying the weather (25 degrees since I got back) and long days. Leaving work at 5pm is no problem either.

                Not missing anything about London yet, except some friends.
                Don't ask Beaker. He's just another muppet.
