Money Making Megastar!
We are quite lucky that we do own our house but that is because we were very lucky that I had a really well paid job and lived with my parents and managed to save a large amount. Also bought the house with my sister originally so that made it easier. A few years ago she bought her own place so she now owns a % of our house and has her own too.
I'm glad our mortgage is a lot cheaper when you compare it to renting, its less than half what people get charged for some of the houses they rent round here.
I'm also lucky that my husband has an excellent job, he started last year on a salary a few thousand less than what he was earning but he is happier in this job and at home a lot more (its shift work now, before he was working 8-6 5 days a weeks and 8-2 on a Saturday and was often finishing late).
We can't afford holidays yet and that is why I try and earn from home, also getting those treats that we couldn't afford.
My sister is trying to talk me into becoming a nurse, you get a bursary that is more that I make from working from home but then I would have to pay more for childcare. I want to wait till both our children are in secondary school before looking at starting a new career.
I couldn't leave the UK, it would mean leaving my family behind and we are all really close. I don't even think I could move to the next town lol (we all live within 5 minutes of each other!)
