Hi Zombie. Why have you limited it to the building game? Why not become a Life Coach or a Personel Trainer? Just a thought. I have qualifications form a few years back in NLP so I can be a Life Coach if I wanted. I had similar ides to you at the time but I have never used them and I would need to brush up now. Good luck mate
 
Be careful with plumbing course. You need to work for a copany afterward to fully qualified and most cannot get a placement. Plastering is not like this it is is unregulated and any one can just start out on there own after doing a few day couse. Madness. I did apprenticeship in the eighties after starting on YTS. Anyone can start as a plasterer today.
 
It's worth trying anything mate. At worst you will have spent a few quid and lost a bit of time. You always have spreading to fall back on.

Thanks Zombie. I haven't been onlong so don't know your history mate but all the best to you whatever you choose to do. When you think aobut the thousnds of different jobs and trades out there and when you listen to what , friends, ex-friends, relatives, strangers are doing or have done its natural to want to do something else sometimes. Like when you are married and you still look at other women. Theres no harm in that mate. It is natural again. One of my favourite sayings is "successful people ask better questions". That sums things up I think.

the good times have gone, the trade is being dragged down by to many chancers ,undercutting everybody, to many people chasing to few jobs, intrest rates to rise next year for definite, and that will really knock a lot of plasterers,people are cutting back ,a year from now it will be much worse

was thinking that myself :RpS_thumbup: been non stop for about two years, now, but cant see it continuing when the rates rise. got one of them terminals for worldpay zinc and already had a few pay on it. might help if people can see you take credit cards. i dont care when they pay their card off so long as i get paid

Why do people assume your doin ok if you have a flash car/van. Maybe he jist blew his redundency cheque on the van and earns $100 a week...
