i think you may be right as the insecurities are inmyslef thanks

Happiness is also in ourselves, so I've been taught, but it's a bit of bugger trying to find it sometimes!  :-\

I have 150 jobs a month and spent the rest of my time fishing, I'm happy with that, getting wiser with my age  ;)

If that's all you ate, you'd get sick of it at some point, therefore it can't be true happiness (and you'd end up looking like that saggy-breasted-old-tart, Hector).

I posit that all you get by eating pie is some short-lived relief from the way you normally feel.

I remember when I started out and only earn't 50k a year. You'll improve as time goes on and work will pick up eventually. Don't worry about it.

Money buys tangible things.
Happiness isn't tangible.

Wife & kids happy?
Bills paid each month?
A few quid for a beer on Friday night?

That's enough. Any more and you'd just spend it on stuff you don't really want.

Ps-it still really surprises me that people post their earnings on an open forum.
Only me, the accountants and her majesty's finest know what I make.

I make enough to live and pay my bills I work 2 days a week and earn more than most do in full time employment .

I work to live now not live to work its pointless being the richest bloke in the grave yard I learnt the hard way .
I drive an 03 combo I dont need to work 7 days a week to pay for a van im as happy as a pig in poo
The most stress I get is if ive forgot to wash me scrims or somebody's windows have spotted on a first clean lol .

I earned over a Hundred grand last year and next month I intend going to the moon with
Richard Branson.
Do you honestly think that if somebody was good enough to be earning £50.000 + a year cleaning windows they would be the type of person to tell strangers about it.

I do. Yes. People are (sometimes) proud of what they earn (sometimes rightly so) and like to tell people.
Someone very close to me, also a shiner, is always telling me what he makes as it is so much more than they used to make in their previous job.
It's the same story for a lot if us, if not all of us.
Just that some people speak about it and some don't.
In my experience, the ones that don't say tend to be at the higher end of the fiscal scale
