Then again, would you like to be a fat and greedy corpo, driving a Merc, liking work too much?
i don't really earn it...but I can spend it (and pay it back in a few years)
Now if that isn't slave labour i don't know what is!!
Its all experience i hear my lecturers cry!! Bollocks to exoerience i need to survive!
I get £3.05 - 1 week ago it was £2.97, im nearly 17 and it goes up an extra 20p <IMG SRC="eek.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
There isnt a minimum wage for 16 year olds is there?
I mean thats just extorninate, but i cant get a job anywhere else because of college, and the available hours i can work.
I charge my clients £100 per hour for my time, but I have to do a lot of extra time on research and keeping my services upto scratch that is unpaid, as are my holidays.
I've recently opened a new business in addition to my consultancy business, which should really increase my actual income to well over £100k per annum if all goes according to plan.
That's a little unusual of course, but I was lucky enough to break into a very specialised field of expertise at just the right time.
Thing is though, it has never been the money for me. I really love my job and the work it involves.
£100 an hour? What actually do you do to earn this kind of money? Is this £100 an hour constant, or do you do a couple of hours a day tops?
£4.30 an hour is a great wage for a 15 year old, but thankfully, i got off my ass and went into town to the casino, they pay £4.50 for waiting, plus tips, its gonna be kinda good working at a casino for tips hey <IMG SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
Unless their losers, most likely will be the case.
Oh yeah, i just read your post again blacky <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon"> Are you in the male porn industry or something? Or an escort?

Definitely no advertising here. <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
What I actually do mostly is consulting, just advising and helping businesses who want to succeed on the internet.
The £100 an hour is certainly not constant (unfortunately). One week I may earn a good few thousand, then the next few weeks may all be spent in writing business proposals to get more work, which is hours of research and typing that only pay off if I get the contract.
It seems a damn good wage anyway and must keep you going for a while, i wish you all the luck in your new business <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
and PussyKatty i think you could get much more then £500 a night from Spearmint Rhino,You get tips as well if you do the dancing you earn big buckes!!
Not bad idea, shame they don't pay men for that sort of thing!
<IMG SRC="rolleyes.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
but i can only work for 3 and a half hours on a Saturday...not so good now is it??
But having lent 2 and a half to a mte who was in a rather large hole and having my own place to maintain i feel poorer than my student days
Over here I'm in a temporary sales job on about $9.10 an hour (5500 pounds a year) which bear in mind is NZ standards and is basic for people my age... <IMG SRC="frown.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
I'm about to move over to a IT postition to earn about $45k (15.5k pounds) a year, which is a very good salary for the working person in NZ <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">
