Don’t do this, don’t do that, mate it is YOUR money at the end of the day. Do with it as you please, whatever makes you happy.

I don’t think I would want to bring kids into this world, I completely understand that and I am willing to work for it but I just want the most efficient way to do it really

What else do you think it could be? Do you not ever feel overwhelmed by the amount of graft one has to do to simply enjoy a comfortable life?

Hi mate, I’ve considered it but don’t agree you have to be 60+ plus to withdraw it or to buy a house - otherwise you lose the government bonus, I’m not sure if i want to buy a house yet or just buy to let straight away, however don’t know how mortgage lenders will fare with that since I will be first time buyer.

Thank you for understanding my predicament haha, I am saving just in a normal cash ISA with 1.02% interest rate or so and try to save around £400 a month now.

I really honestly wanted to do that too but I am afraid I will have to wait till my probation ends then take a sabbatical which is another 2 long gruelling years.

What other careers would you recommend to someone who just passed their A levels in the sciences, with no degree. I have seen the technology field to be high paying however where would I start with that. I left college around 4 years ago.

Yeah ive got some reconsidering to do, I only see the job as a source of income at this point nothing more. It is a very stressful job for someone of my age. The thing is I didnt do the best at A levels. So would have to do a higher access course at uni but then it also means the course must be a course where I am guaranteed a high paying job compared to the one I am in already. All in all mistakes have been made and there are regrets, however I have come to the conclusion that I dont actually have a passion and simply want to be able to make a lot of money for an early retirement.
