You gotta do what u gotta do, that's what I've learnt from my life experiences so far.

 

Long hours is a pain, ( I can relate I work on the railway)

 

But it's rewarding when you look at the bank account each week.

 

All the best fella hope it works out for you ?

Assuming you're working everyday, you're making around 2.6k a week, about 10.5k a month, around 126k a year before taxes.

 

Grats bro! You better milk the shit out of that job, no pun intended LOL

I'm from NZ IRD does out taxes at a set rate of how much you earn like if you earn 40,000 a year you get taxed 19.83% ect, we can claim a percentage of tax back once a year.

I see, I just presumed you was from the UK. It's not like that over here..

 

The tax man is always winning, has my pants down every week.
