Dude! Anyone who tried to talk me out of a four-day week would get an extemporised crash course in the slacker ethos and the utter folly of 'economic' activity.
Not that I've had a chance to secure such a situation in my whole working life... If it were to come along, I'd be sorted. Retirement would consist of going to three days a week.
Kimmo-
Mate! Sadly no one talked me out of (or into) anything, I saw the potential dollar signs and here we are. But it has turned me into a hamster on a wheel for the foreseeable. 😩
I've got ten years of work left, one of my clients has already said he wants me to carry on working beyond that. Let's see if we're both still around by then, not taking anything for granted anymore. 💀

Two years ago I was working a four day week and was very happy, I had enough money to live and enjoyed a three day weekend, it was perfect. Then I took an extra day and a half of work, when I saw an accountant she told me I had to buy a new car to offset my tax liability and save money. I thought this was a bit odd but went along with it.
Now I'm working my self stoopid and chasing my tail every week to pay the bloody car off. I'll be going back to a four day week once the loan is paid. #csb
