Isn't that something like the top 1% of earners?

Actually a couple of years ago, earning over £27k put you in the top 1% of earners worldwide

Perhaps if I were earning £100k alone yes but unfortunately this is not the case. I can only dream of earning that kind of wonga.

I know you go on about how you are considerably richer than everyone else, but could you just answer me one question when exactlcy do you work?? Because you seem to be on here most days, posting all day and all night.

Are you spinning us a yarn? i smell bullsh!t:rolleyes:

It's a well known fact that the more responsibility you get, the better jobs you obtain and the more money you're paid... the less actual work you have to do. That's generally been my experience anyway. The hardest I ever worked in my life was as a waiter when I was a student, on £3.20 odd an hour and didn't stop for hours on end.

And just as a point of order, Mitchaa isn't really on here all that much.

Thats accurate, to a point.

I work a lot less hours now than I used to, and the work is less physically demanding, and I'm based from home, so set my own hours etc mostly.

But the level of responsibility is greater, and the intensity and skill of the work is much higher, just usually in shorter bursts.

I kinda meant it as a joke, but I guess it has some truths.

And I completey agree with your points: working your socks off gets replaced slowly by less 'work' but more responsibility and being put on to projects / roles because you're experienced and trusted to just oversee other people doing stuff. IMO of course.

As I see it, you spend the first half of your career learning, and the second half teaching.....

The first half is more work, but the second half is more challenging.

I agree, the !!!!!! industry just hasn't been the same since people started filming on digital cameras....
