Is Money the only TRUE satisfaction from contracting?

Doesn't the railway carriage take you up the slope?

No, it's static, about the same conditions as a narrow boat I guess. Midgies -, I've been bitten a dozen times already, and it's midgie alert status 1. hey ho
it's peaceful though, and i got some good footage of the Ospreys. Tomorrow we are going to look for otters

No. It's also about challenge and freedom from corporate bulltulip

Freedom to increase your profits by staying in a cheap and cheerful B&B or splash out on something nicer according to working conditions or taste.

After being charged out at a fortune every day as a permie and having my expenses questioned, this was a breath of fresh air.

And being able to take long holidays (isn't that right EO) , also having the freedom to choose the work you want and when you want.

Absolutely. Money is part of my motivation, but a much greater part is the freedom and choice.

For me yes, others embrace the challenge, enjoy meeting new people etc etc but I'd happily take a dead end job for the rest of my life as long as the money was good and it was close to home.

I just don't care enough about work, it gets in the way of all the other things I want to do.

I can sympathise, but too dead end and I get restless.

Another benefit is being able to avoid tax ..... eerrr I mean being in complete control of your finances.

Only if you don't really enjoy what you do, IMO.
