250 quid a month is certainly nice
But it's easier and more realistic to weigh up that against what you potentially give up, than try to picture £4k.

I could easily get 10-20k moving to London, but have to balance that against losing my chosen appearance, a LOT of my free time, plus having to pay London rates (admittedly not that dissimilar to Stratford rates).

Yeah that's how I look at it,
it's £250 a month more, but that's not life changing and is it worth being miserable for. However, I won't know if I'm going to be miserable unless I try it, so I'll give it a go and see what happens.

I agree completely and I would do the same if I wasn't planning to start a business.
If it's only for a few years, going corporate won't hurt in the long run. We pay a price for our 'alternative' look but I won't cut my hair, lose the beard or tats for any job.

I wouldn't shave off my beard for any job.
unless it was really easy, stress free, interesting and paid a fucking fortune.

I could do that. I doubt I'd have to shave off my beard either

It would look better when you're poncing around in the linen suit.

Good look,
There a lot heavier than you think aren't they. Excellent beard too.

they are indeed
I have a photo of me with a buzzard from when I was about 6 or 7. That thing was fucking massive and weighed loads.
