having money, to me, means a whole host of less worries...

bills are no object, shopping is 10x more fun, just put things in the trolley or basket without looking at price or considering whether is affordable...

His bank balance aint great due to him having a shitty job and a visa lovin bride but if he sold up he would need jeans wi big pockets in em

Ive been everywhere from pretty poor to really quite comfortable financially over the years in an up and down random cycle, but TBH i disagree with what you are saying, when ive had enough income to just click my fingers and buy something its not something you enjoy as much as saving up and buying something, the looking forward to getting things is most of the pleasure i reckon.

Having been in all sorts of circumstances financially i can honestly say that money doesnt really bring me much happiness, friends and family are far more likely to do that, no amount of money spent is quite the same as having a laugh with my little nephew and seeing him happy etc.

Saying that though, id hate to ever have to worry about paying the bills again, i think a certain amount of money makes you happy, but any more than that doesnt really make much difference.

my old boss honestly had a saving issue and so as a way of sorting him self a back up plan for his business he bought house to rent and when hes shop wasnt makign as much he would have the rent from the flat to sort it and he would always have cash to sell if needed, he started off buying a house in stoke newington from the council and gutting it ect and then bought another and another and another as well as opening up a few more stores too

he never had more that a grand in the bank of his and had most of his rent from flats paying the morgages ect and he worked 7 days a week !!!!!!!, he got diagnosed with cancer and so decided he would look at his life and take it easy and spend time with his family ( should actually call it a army, 8 kids he had !!!!!)


anyway he sold the shops he owned and decided to live off his flats rent as they was all payed for


dont know how much money hes got but he owns 30 houses in stoke newington and a few more around surounding areas

wonder what hes income is now per week

anyway all he and his famliy do is go on holidays all year round to relive bordom


hes not a nasty person and never set out to be rich, he just wanted to have enough money to have a beer at the end of a days work


gotta respect that from him

true comment, infact i personally hate non spenders who save all there cash they get to say they have 3 million in the bank, what fooking use is it there

put it back into the comunity and get returns that everyone gains from !!!!


people worth money on paper aint real millionares BUT they atleast have the cash still flowing about


think of it like people who buy rare cars to store in a garage and never use em, waste of a car aint it


and oif everyone saved all there cash up then no fooker would have money as ot needs to pass around everyone so we all haev a chance to have a pound note

I no 2 people who were in top 20 of richest people in britain,one is richest in hampshire . And i can say they still work and one had a stroke last year due to stress. Being a millionaire isnt always good. Just makes debts bigger and pressures even more but you do have alot of friends

yeah robbies is a case of not listening to ya dads business advise

id like to know a guy who likes business investments rather than a bank thought tbh but then thats cause i hate banks and the way the twat behind the desk is there to judge how good the business even though he works for a bank and aint got one of his own

but if i do decide to set up me busines then i will just sell some of me junk to fund it
