I don't do drugs, but I do drink, at the moment I am having a nice glass of Bordeaux, I rent one of these downtrodden flats off the council at £71 per week.

Do I want to buy my own home? (I can afford too if I wanted) No.

When I get very old and lose the plot, they will drag my arse off to the local home and I will not have to pay a penny for my care, while you will be on the next zimmer frame, but they will have taken and sold your house to pay for your keep.

The area I live in might be a bit iffy but I can keep them out by just closing my front door, inside my flat is the same as yours I would expect, except I have a few more bottles/crates of wine than you have.

and the only drugs in my house are paracetamol but in time the odd blue pill might be needed ;D

I image we have as window cleaners is quite justified with so many involved in drugs and drink.There  also seems to be a lack of education. Which I have no problems with except that all these vices drag this industry down the gutter.I will wait for the avalanche of chips of the shoulders that will fly soon.

what is it with window cleaners !!! Am I the only one thats not a drinker mmmm it seems that all the windys I know have a drink problem or like a good drink !!! Or like a bit of weed. Not me but then again they dont have what Ive got as they seem to rent flats which they dont own, If they have there own place they live in deprived area's or there place is not that nice .... I look at myself and think mmmmm how lucky I am that I dont drink or do drugs and have a business with a turn over of a 6 figure sum. Have a 4 bedroom house and drive a bmw convertible with a private plate of wossup. Work hard and stay off drink & drugs and you will do ok in life !!!!!

Actually a fair point, However my pressure washer stopped working half way through a job, I cant smash that coz it cost me a grand so Im gonna smash you instead.

4 Bed house.....Do you own it or does the bank?
Convertable BMW....Want to elaborate? I had one once and sold it for £500.
Number plate Wossup. Seriously. Was that from the 99 or 149 section of the dvla website.

I dont drink or do drugs and I work hard, and I am still skint. Its called having a wife and 3 Kids. ;)

BVC. ;D

Is this a serious post? Now if you lived in a six bed house and drove an aston or similar then you would still look a div bragging!

But a bmw with a stupid childish out of date plate is just a joke....

the goverment did say recently that they will increase the discount that tenants get to buy their homes, so if this happens I will be able to buy mind for about £40k to £50k.

I wonder if they will take cash or card ;D

Danny's right. Doing drugs is a mugs game and you can have all that without the need for using them.
Selling them is the way to go, eh Danny?

i absolutley agree m8

turnover is absolutely knackers if running costs are too high.
i could start another business tomorrow making hardly/any moneys.

However window cleaning is completley different to most businesses as the overheads are "circumstantially" different.

OUR RETAIL shops margins are smaller than our window cleaning margins but "circumstantially" different.
this is a complete new thread m8 , i wont go on lol

I'm always a bit suspicious of those who say 'six figure turnover' as what does that mean exactly? It could be £100 000 or £999 999.

Why state 'six figure turnover'? It reeks to me of snobbery and one one-upmanship. Why not say I have a turnover of x amount and be done with it.

A few weeks back I was talking to another window cleaner who was doing the house opposite the one I was doing. He asked how much I charged for the house I was doing and I said £20 which I thought was a reasonable price. He said, as the house I was doing was the same style and build as the one he was doing, that I was too cheap and he was charging £30.

What he didn't know was his customer had dropped me last year as 'too expensive' as she'd found a window cleaner to do it for a tenner and I didn't say a word as there was no point.

There seems to be a lot of willy waving in the world of window cleaning and I've noticed that generally those who do earn very good money don't tend brag about it.
