I am motivated by the fact I am a lazy bastard and the mroe I work now means the more time off.
-
I have a lifestyle and expensive wife to run.
If I could be bothered to save I'd have to work less, but I do like to have disposable income

I do actually 'love' my job as well. Work from home, do my own hours and get paid a fixed rate regardless of time actually spent so no timesheets. Part of the job involves writing and arranging music, it doesn't get any better.
Plan B is well ahead too.

I just do it for the money. Pure and simple.
I have a great lifestyle, no really massive debts or bills.

I am motivated to come to this forum because...
1. Wit and wisdom (errmm?)
2. Fun and bravado (pardon?)
3. Political commentary (cough)
4. Crushing insults from masters of english

I get up and do 1 ½ hours on Plan B before leaving for clientco.
Clientco is currently a very very nice place to be although the work could be a bit more interesting….
On the whole quite motivated although I’ve got to stop playing WoW so much and posting on here – I’d get so much more done
