Hi,
In recent weeks my world of being a 'Permie' has been turned upside down by an offer to go IT Contracting in Belgium and I am now at my first major crossroads.
The idea of contracting has always appealed to me and although I wasn't actively looking, the feeling to 'change path' was getting stronger.
I've had a pretty unorthodox career path, self employed Trading on Risk markets from 2005. I then went into full time employment in 2012 and have developed a wide range of IT and Business Process skills to compliment my Data, Probability and Risk Management skills nurtured by Trading.
Career wise and Financially this move seems to make sense although obviously there is an obvious risk in making this jump. Especially as its in Europe!
I have had a good dig around the forum and in particular this thread on setting up in Belgium. .

I will continue to investigate my options and consider the impacts. My Decision has not yet been made but I thought at least I could introduce myself here before I start asking questions around the forum.
Thanks,
Beat
