Unexpected Good Fortune
Travelling through Seattle a good 15 years ago, I remembered an old friend I used to blow up Action Men with. We were bored, nothing to lose , so I looked him up in the phonebook. He was the only one of that name in there. "Come and stay," goes he.
Me and my mates were living in a car at that point so a bed was a novelty. After searching for a while, we rock up to a very posh mansion on Puget Sound with its own Helipad. "Come flying," goes he.
Has your luck held out recently?

« Go Back
I was recently offered a new job which I eventually accepted
I will work the same hours that I work now but my paycheck will triple to 5000 quid a month, all taxes paid. I'll have to relocate with my family but it will be to a nice place so I'll take it as an adventure.
Ironically, money never really mattered to me so they had to do some convincing before I took the bait. I'm taking it primarily because it'll be a fun job, not because of the pay.
Still, having all that money will be fun ..
