I sold £3.5k worth of Tat on Amazon over the last BH weekend, netting a cool £1200 while sitting in a jacuzzi drinking beer. Which was nice.

All the best! That is indeed, true freedom. Hopefully it kicks off.Originally posted by NorthWestPerm2Contr View PostStarted contracting in 2010 and have finally had enough after a recent gig. Got worked like a dog and then they decided to let all the best people go at once (All under a leading consultancy). Also have worked really hard on my own startup which finally has some revenue and growth. Feels good to take a break from the daily grind! Super motivated now to get it to succeed whilst I don't have any money coming in! I've managed to save enough to keep me going for about 9 months, but I'm very optimistic about the business!

Good luck with the startup!

Yes unfortunately most contracts in the last few years meant working us like a dog and a half... they are doing projects now with less than the old days staff... I took 2.5 months break already. The idea of going back makes me sick, but got to do what I got to do !Originally posted by NorthWestPerm2Contr View PostStarted contracting in 2010 and have finally had enough after a recent gig.
