Fook me, my new cleaner drives a Mercedes.

No joke! I know this is Surrey but still ...

I know someone who cleaned for people, because she enjoyed the work, not because she needed the money. She stopped because of all the snide comments from 'clients' who were mortgaged up to the hilt in their small new-build house with a leased RAV4 on the drive, and who automatically assumed they were 'better off' than their cleaner.

The cleaner had a large £500k 5-bedroom house in the country, no mortgage, and had bought her brand-new but modest Golf outright.

Anyway, I thought she'd given it up. I didn't realise she drove a Merc and cleaned for you now SAS.

My brother brought a new house and had only been there a couple of days when he went out his side door and there was a fully loaded brand new mercedes across his driveway he walked round the front and there was a very properly dressed women looking like Mrs Bouquet from keeping up appearances, he enquired who she was and she replied " i am here to do the sparkle clean"

to add insult to injury my Brother drives a van and she thought he was one of the builders finishing of the house

You shouldn't have made snide comments to her. Hope your financial situation has improved.

Anyway good for her. I guess you can make loads of money if you run a cleaning business as opposed to working for someone else. I'm paying the going rate for around here which is £9 an hour.

Is this your plan B?

It's not a bad one. Get loads of Bobesses or Poles fresh off the boat, start a cleaning company, pay them minimum wage and pocket the difference. No need for premises etc, just some initial marketing money.
