Title: How would you earn £150 per week working for yourself ?
Post by: garrardrj on October 09, 2013, 01:41:23 pm
Well a clue in the title , I would like a Part Time (20hrs or less a week)

Theres all sorts of jobs out there employed by other people which i am not wanting ! I have thought about window cleaning , painter & decorator , gardener , driver , chauffeur , handyman etc . All Fairly simple jobs some involve some committment other are working as a when the work is there , i'm not that fussed whether a committment is required or not . Needs to be something that i can do all year .

What do you suggest ?

I don't have to do anything financially but can't play (Gym , Swimming , Golf , Walk dog , holiday , Cars ) all the time (i'm getting under the wifes feet too LOL)

Van man, doing small deliverys. Friend started doing this with city sprint, had a small pda that he could pick up jobs when he wanted. He now does it full time, which he is mad considering the hours and milege he is now doing, approx 2.8k per week.

Considering your career, what about an occasional driver at a car dealership, ie taking cars between showrooms, car delivery to customers etc...

Also considering your length of service any earnings will be stung on tax, as you will have escaped the pension changes looming  :signLOL:

Contact car dealerships to see if they have any vacancies for professional drivers. Picking people up from train stations, airports, and delivering cars etc.

I think you ex-police? if so have you considered contacting some solicitors, I'm sure they like ex-police to visit clients and take statement etc

If you fancy something different - Gigolo :laugh:
