Lodan. King of the chancers.
If he’d have worked alongside a reputable builder for years and then said “I’m going on my own” then that’s what I’d see as normal.
To wake up, again, and say I’m going to be a builder and come up against a whole loads of problems and technical issues to deal with and fumble through them or spend every night googling how to solve it, to me that’s chancing.
 
To make it clear I'm working with a chap who is a builder who's been doing conversions for a while ,on his own was too slow and was turning down work, wanted to employ me full time but I said no as I'm a business man said I would happily split some jobs 50/50 with him if he wanted to rattle through a few and it went from there. All work goes through building control. Everyone else can be as happy as they like in their bubble and never move forward and that's fine and im happy for those people but I'm not and want to move forward. To be honest I find it all a bit boring so I'll leave you lads to Nash your gums about it as it makes no odds to me.

A mate of mine had a very boring nightshift job and taught himself magic. He used to earn a lot of coin doing both kids and adult parties. Quite funny really as he always said that he hated kids.
 
I like to do different stuff...taught myself to juggle, wrote a book, got into running and ran 1.15 for a half, did rock climbing for a while, learnt to ride a uni cycle....just the normal stuff...life's an adventure don't ever stand still

Don't think it's what you think two sticks and a piece of string spinning a cone shaped thing on them
 
And as a side note every builder woke up one day and decided to be a builder as it's not a trade...no nvq or anything, just a chap in a trade who decided to organise stuff
