Hello All

I'm just about to start a apprenticeships with British Gas to become a Corgi gas man. Pretty happy with their training package and wages after qualifying. What I'd really like to know is what a realistic wage self employed is. People have been telling my 50-100k.

Bit much to ask strangers what they earn but it private, in a way.

Cheers

If you don't mind me asking you mate, what kind of money do British Gas offer you as an apprentice?

It is possible to earn over the £50k mark but as mentioned your looking at long hours and almost no rest/ quality time. Sometimes its better to team up with another self emplyed guy and split the work load.

Also, the different divercities of work you carry out dictates your income.

No you are about to start an apprenticeship with BG to be a gasman, Corgi dont come into anymore and never did imo anyway. Stick at it and you will be well trained.

I dont know of anyone earning the sort of money you state at BG, if you want to get rich get another job .....city trader.... thats the way to go.
