    He's too smart to take on permies. All cost, no benefit. Can't see the point of them myself.

    The big time? Wouldn't say that, but I am very pleased to be able to have flexible, lucrative and interesting work that, for now at least, means I can work from home.
    Time is more important than money for me.
    But TBH, the oppo exists for someone more driven (and more of a salesman) than me to make a lot of money at this lark.
    The demand is tulip hot and the supply is sadly lacking.

    Permies every time. The power trip will be too good a chance to miss.

    Fair play though - if he's not contracting anymore there's less chance of ever having to work with him.

    He's always banged on about using cheap foreign labour for building work. So I expect something similar.

    edit: that's not a criticism, it's what I would/do do.
