You need 3 things.

Money and a VERY understanding wife.
Friends (or friends of friends) who will give you a small but steady amount of regular work.
Luck.


Thats what id think that you will almost certainly need, if you wanted to set up on your own.
Thats what i would need, anyway.
 
Training 5k
Wagon
And materials £10,000-£50,000 depending on the work.
DONT HIRE MATERIALS as it swallows your profit margin.
 
Go to the casino and stick the lot on red , you might not win (50/50) chance but you will save yourself years of stress, poverty , hard graft working 7 days a week and a family who dont no who the fu ck you are when you come home as its been so long since they seen you.
 
so where do i go for training SSS and what is the time scale ?? dont gamble anymore , spent too much time in casinos in the past..... is there places you can hire materials to save you a huge outlay or is this non cost effective ???
 
Kenzy, far be it for me to destroy the dreams of anyone but talking about setting out on your own before even getting trained is beyond belief. It's going to take 2-3 years to complete your training then a further 6-10 but probably longer to get the experience needed to be the man that solves everyone's problems for them. Forget it, at least until you have a bit of experience behind you.
 
Learn how to do fittings up first... for about 10 years. Then do not bother... the start up costs are crazy. If you could get 2 or 3 others to invest then its better.
