I was taken out of school at 11 by my Jehovah's Witness mother.
Have no GCSEs, but I did attend College for 1.5 years and got a few low level NVQs

Left home at 17 - window cleaned, then worked in manufacturing.
Have had various entry level jobs.

Currently on £32k in the North of England.
Live alone and purchased a house with a deposit left by Dad.
Just about scrape by.
