Finances

Car Transporter. I take-home £850 a week.
It's a well paid job, but not one for life, I go to work 6am Monday and I don't come home till Friday at around 6pm... So I park up for the night during the week and I can't exactly go anywhere, I'm stuck in my cab watching films/TV shows etc... Which helps with the fact I can save so much as I literally spend no money during the week, plus my gas/electric bills are super low considering I'm only there at the weekends.

I'll probably do it for another 3-5 years then I'll go back to where I was which was a Manager at a Cinema

Great pay if you can save £2500 a month. Defo need a better work/life balance though, don't get caught in the trap!

Definitely wont, only been doing it for a year so far... but my main fear is that I won't be able to go back to a 'normal' £300-350 a week job... I've made sure I'm living by the same means as I was before. For example I have all this disposable income, normally people would get a new car on finance or something, but I want to make sure I'm never tied down and forced to stay in this job to pay for a lavish lifestyle since I don't particularly like the work life balance, the job itself is great, but it feels like I'm at work for 5 days straight without a break as there is no transition from work to my own free time, as it's spent in the same place.
