Probably been a topic before, but whats your job and how much do you earn.

I'll be twenty when i leave college and the public services wont be recruiting for another couple of years after that. So will be gaining employment hopefully.

I got a job at the moment but it's no good for a full time job.

id love to have your job tbh

[Rotrex_Rallye]

I'm a motor trader and it varies from year to year what I earn. Last year I took personal profit just short of 32k. I also have a couple of little business ventures on the side which I use for spending money. The rest I either invest or save. I do get a lot of help from my old man though. He was in the trade all his life and recently retired. So really he works for nothing.

[Saxotim]

[MJ05LLY]

[Krys_23]

I work for Nicolson Engineering, Currently making spacers for pipes underwater , Going to go back and do another course at college focusing on becoming a good tig welder.

[devilsadvocate]

and you own a vtr why? :err:

Cheap runaround mate, sure there are people on here that earn more than me who have VTR/VTS etc

I probably do less than 4000 miles a year, walk to work.
Dont really need a more powerfull or newer car tbf
I like the fact that I can fix most things on my VTR so no garage labour costs etc :). The doris' dad is an ex mechanic so i never have to visit a garage ;) except for MOT time

[dougieph2]

but surely you couldve thought of a better car to buy than a vtr?

[devilsadvocate]

but surely you couldve thought of a better car to buy than a vtr?

Like?

My insurance is £440 a year fully comp, I get 35-38mpg average
Its decent BHP for the £1100 i paid for it
Its been reliable so far, parts are dirt cheap
Tax isnt expensive

I can go on.....lol

[MiniGibbo]

Im a fudge packer..

[MJ05LLY]

but surely you couldve thought of a better car to buy than a vtr?

Just because he earns a nice wage does not instantly mean he has to buy a better car
He could have a nice house with a big mortgage that he spends most his money on or just like to drink his money away
:drink:

*Isnt meant to sound like an arsey comment btw*

[dougieph2]

but thats just no fun...

[Krys_23]

Agree with dougie, i'd rather live in a wheelie bin and cut about in an evo 10.

[dougieph2]

well.. surely if someone has interest in cars and is earning good money, they would pick a better car than a vtr..

[MiniGibbo]

Not realy im currently looking at buying a vtr as i fancy slamming it on some turini's* and smoothing it..

Then again im very complusive.

[MiniGibbo]

Another example is this mush on another forum i use he had a 355 sypder then a 680 odd bhp 911 turbo and he bought a 5k e36 m3 evo to use as a track car..

Even though he could probly afford to buy a gt3rs to use??

[dougieph2]

[Woody91]

[VTHall]

Im an apprentice mechanic for West Mids Ambulance earning £90 a week

[devilsadvocate]

Think apprenticies have a standard wage of £90 per week across the board...unless im talking complete bullshit, which is a distinct possibility!

[Saxotim]

My wage is just a bit above the minimum. Do believe the minimum is about 80 or 85 per week but im not complaining keeps the car on the road, I enjoy the job and just waiting to hear whether I get put onto level 3.

[dondan]

Retail Manager soon to be Police Officer with a bit of property developing on the side. Best paid job I had was in Project Management @ £35k, but wasn't worth the hassle and hours!

High Earning doesn't necessarily mean flash car, all my money is in savings for when I'm ready to go into property.

[leeham987]

Fair play to you, its unfortunate that a lot of other people are not like you and prepared to get jobs they don't really wanna do just to earn some money and contribute to society like the rest of us.

cheers, i just see that it's better than signing on, like you say it needs more people to think the same, but it's too easy for people to go to job centre once a week and get their free money.

Fair play to you mate! Too many spongers these days. Think the saying is "I must go to work, there are people on the dole who depend on me". Pisses me off tbh!
