I'm just a technician, Kindness is a 4dgeorockwizard person.

Feck knows. I think I earn decent coin but have nothing to show for it, I mean ive got no debt but no flash toys either. I think I lead quite a humble life nowdays, seem to be more content saving money than having a nice shirt on my back or car on the drive.

There must be a few earning over 100kpa on here. Some will also be paying more tax than others on their top line so will do better from it.

Big money for me would mean working in some undesirable such as West Africa, Caspian sea, Russia or Iraq type of place a month+ at a time, but with the wage lift & the tax relief to go with it also comes much doom of conditions & time spent away. I'm happy-ish for now with my current gig of decent money for 140-ish days of work a year. Its enough for me to lead a comfortable life while maintaining a good mix of work time V's time off & the overtimes always there if I want to make a bit extra.

I don't really care who knows what money I'm on. I usually ask other class 2 drivers just to see if they're employers offer better rates. Someone on £50k a year will make less than a couple making the same amount due to tax.

You mean buy one and then buy another, or did you sell one first?
