The plumbing will get you started then you can start to build a property portfolio. It all comes together eventually. Before you know it you'll have more money coming in than you'll know what to do with.
The decisions become harder to make though.
I can't decide on a month in the Bahamas or a tour around Australia!
Think I'll let the mrs decide!

It's not all about the money, there's much more to a CAREER than money. I love what I do, always learning and to me that means more than money.

Spot on, I comfortably earn near enough 35/40k every year, and this year it will be slightly more as I'm going for a mortgage, I could easily earn another 10/15k on too of what I do, but I like the routine I have and the time I have to myself in the evening and on weekends.

I enjoy my job and enjoy meeting different people on every job, I have a mate who spends as little time as possible in people's homes during his working day and FairPlay to him he earns a fortunes, but I'm not about that really.

I like to take my time with each job and I can guarantee I learn something new everyday.

Money is nice, but there's more important things, fortunately doing this for a job, when we need extra money we can do extra work and earn it, but I'm happy working the way I am.

Id love to be a millionaire, but I have no aspirations to turn myself into a business that employs people and tenders for contracts, its too much hassle.

my couple of property rentals help when plumbing and heatings slow. But to be a millionaire you need to find a niche. My cousin did just that 20 years back when fed up with plumbing he bought a few air cons and sold them out of his garage. took on some subbies and built a good turnover based on the rising need for computer servers needing to keep cool along with the office staff. Now he has binned his maserati for a vw, still has a rather big yacht, plays golf and goes abroad regularly for several months. His mangers run the firm for him and hes waiting for them to buy him out!! Forget millionaire just multi millionaire and now he also invests in start ups ie the dragons but doesnt want to be a prat on tv! hes still a good bloke, but doesnt need to worry about wheres work gone like the rest of us!!! green horned just a bit 🙂
