I know I am being really nosey and it's not very British to talk money. I was inspired by another thread where people are asking questions to all sorts of careers.

I was just wondering if people could take part and say what they do, how much they earn and where they are. Also, could you also provide advice on how to enter the profession and whether you recommend it. Thought this might be more u self than just go ogling as I get real life opinions and have found the other thread really insightful

Please let's not make anyone feel bad for what they are. I'll start

Retail assistant, 3 year, Leeds, £6.50ph. Whilst I actually enjoy it, I'm looking to leave. No advice needed - just hand in tour CVs Smile

I'd add one to that RedDaisy, do something that means you can live where you want to and not where you have to.

Indeed. I practise law but it is just about all on the phone and email. I even could do a bit from the small Pacific island I owned for 10 years until recently! Although I definitely prefer to be in outer London for lots of reasons. The internet has made a huge difference. The Four Hour working week book is worth reading for anyone wanting a career change and to think about different ways of working (from a beach, on your lap top etc).

Allied Health professional. 21 years experience in field £45K FT (I work PT so prorata).Only 6 months off whole career (mat leave x1).
5 1/2 years study to qualify. Undergrad degree, 2 PGDips and a MSc.
The money is pretty crappy when you look at the study and years so I would recommend it for the love not money.

Do you think maybe this thread was a bad idea while all our details are constantly being hacked? Hmm
