I think this job is a bit like marmite... you either love it or hate it. (Well maybe hate is a strong word but im sure there are people doing this that purely do it to pay the bills and would rather not be doing it if they could find a better paid job).
I love my job and always have done since day one. It has enabled me to buy a beautiful home in the countryside, drive a very rare sports car, holiday in pure luxury 3 times a year and I have a very nice savings account untouched for my future. The material things are fab, but it also brings me so much more than that.
It is provided me with a lot of freedom to study for a degree, write a book, start a family and travel. I really feel like I get to "LIVE" my life.
Dont get me wrong - it took a long time of struggling to get by to create this life style I now have. I saved almost every penny I made and worked many hours a day, touring all over the UK and having to lie to everyone around me about what I was doing.
But even then I still loved it. I think I must have been born to do this
