    Thanks... At that stage I was doing circus and pole along with volleyball and pushbike riding.... Unfortunately the pole and circus classes are not convenient to get to from home or work...

    What's a smoking hot body if you're not putting it to good use.

    Absolutely.

    Currently 54 kg and 5 ft 4 inches healthy slim weight range according to the med profession but we all know scales lie.

    Goal is around 48 kg and looking more like Gockie :)

    Agree completely. It seems to sometimes be a weird bloodsport/badge of honour with some.people in terms of how much they sacrifice in pursuit of financial freedom, not for me.

    I agree, but it really depends on what you're sacrificing.. For me, I can put up with an A to B car for a few years, while I increase my cashflow to be able to buy a nice car eventually, and all the while be able to buy small things for my daughter without having to think about it.
    Should have seen her face when she got this! (Picture attached).

    This thread got pretty feisty. I don't even know what counts as work anymore. I can do what I like. I research a lot. Is that work? Maybe.

    Bump


    My hours may have increased slightly, but what I do has changed a tad.

    Anyone care to share

    Just signed up for 37hrs pw approx for 6 mnths starting in about 6 wks. This gets me finance for new build ppor and next 1-2 purchases for the year. Not counting investing related time, but that's my passion.

    Given all the work you people do, there is nothing left for me to do.

    I ticked 51-60, did 63 stressful hours last week. My works generally pretty relaxed and straight forward so putting in hours is easy, last week was not so
