It's all twaddle, I made far more money in my last job than I do now, but at least I go home in the evening, the wife and I have a bite to eat, cup of tea, life's good.

If you can pay your bills and have a bit left over to enjoy yourself then you're doing as well as anyone else.

That's it in a nutshell.

the people who post about huge earnings are the same people whoo post wingey stories of losing a 5 quid customer, (you would think earning that much you wouldnt notice) and the same people who post about the ammount of newbies on their patch. go figure you read on here about potential earnings and see easy money to be made.
every trade people lies about how much money they earn

I'd love to earn £500 a day; I'm happy earning twice that in a week. I've tried hard to see how I could do it and, apart from putting my prices up to a daft level, I can't think how it can be done.

Perhaps after 20 years I'm still missing something, or, heaven forbid, perhaps there's a bit of story telling going on ;D
Come and talk dirty to us!!!

There's certain costs to consider, fuel, various van costs etc. also you need to factor in having no holiday pay, sick pay nor employer pension contributions.

Once you work all that out then you'll know how much you need

I feel that there are 4 groups who come under this topic,

1  These are the ones who want to show off and LOOK AT ME.

2  These are the ones who are getting the higher rates and they want to help those you are not getting it, to increase their turnover figures.

3   These are the ones who know how much can now be made from window cleaning, but they don't want anyone else to know, because the extra competition will spoil it for them, so they will keep very quite or bitch.

4  These just like to keep these sort of details between themselfs and the taxman, but the taxman might not be seeing the whole picture all the time.

5  These are the ones who believe that £6 front and back is a reasonable charge for a house.

My friend runs a garden centre and on the forum he is on they discuss takings, overheads, record days, profit etc.  it allows them to compare their own business to others across the country.

don't worry, I have stopped saying what I do, and I have now stopped helping anyone from getting what I get.

What I do and how I do, is up to others to figure out how i do it, and I don;t really care anymore, I got more important things to look at and do, why bother.

O, I will leave the typo error to prove I am human and can admit mistakes when they happen, just the same as when I type the truth, which a lot either cannot believe or don't want others to hear.

Why would anyone in their right mind want to help all the competition earn as much or more than them? Are you nuts?
That's their business and if they aren't blabbing anyway then it's no concern to me what they earn. It's none of my business and who cares anyway?
What makes you think you're earning more than everyone else anyway? You might well be on the bottom of the pile.  ;D
