I doubt that. Renting from the bank, right? Pay it off, and pay it off ASAP. Live your dream when you own your own bricks and mortar. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Went on school trips they wanted to. Had nice phones, clothes etc. You get the picture.
I've reached the age where fixed outgoings are considerably less income so me and my wife can buy the things we want without worry or guilt.

Sorry but to me this is bullshit.
As I think I previously mentioned my parents are technically millionaires and yet we had very little growing up. For example: shared bedrooms, 5th hand bicycles to cycle 4 miles to school on, no tv, no family holidays, Christmas presents limit of £5 lol
It has definitely affected how I live my life today in a positive way. I am comfortable without the biggest TV, the best or newest motorbike, going on holiday or eating out.
Before you say it: No, I am not in the will and neither are my siblings. My parents weren't born into money and they make it quite clear that we should be the same. ____________________ [/bullshit] |

you need to have a word with your parents dont think that's bullshit either. I work my c*nt off at a job that i don't particularly enjoy so my family can have a roof over their head and nice things NOW. Not in 10 years when i might not be able to see them enjoy them due to quadrospaz/eboli/drankmyselfintooblivion.
If your parents had the money but were too tight to enjoy it, that's their doing. Mine didn't have the money, so by extension we couldn't enjoy it.
Work = money.
How much or how little of it depends entirely on what you're prepared to do for it.
If you're comfortable now and have no kids (dont have kids, they're c*nts) then do what you love. Eventually, it will likely be a chore as well. It doesnt all stay 'fun' forever. Owning your business comes with stresses and financial issues too and i would think, after a while doing it, possibly with no success given the industry, you'd have likely been better off sticking with the well paid day job and spending the free (child free too, bastard) time building bikes as a hobby.
That way, one funds the other. |
