Hardly left myself desolate mind, wasn’t exactly giving up luxury to live off the land.
Just one of them as you get older, you spend less ‘day to day’ and are more focused on other things.
We have properties and that now but I was killing myself to essentially pile up money that I was too exhausted to spend.
Now do my 37.5 hours (instead of 60 plus…) and don’t work weekend or bank holidays. Time with my missus and dog.
It’s balance ain’t it. I mean I ain’t gonna go to work for £12 an hour but I was done with being ridden like a horse.
Feel younger; feel healthier, feel more relaxed.
Would I have taken Saudi money in my youth when I was building? I have to say I’d have considered it, I may well have done a Hendo. Got there and thought ‘**** this’.
You do reach a beautiful mindset when you have your life. Your lads, your lass, your dog, your family and that’s all that matters.
