There is no incentive at all to make a go of things and be in a position to employ others if theres no financial reward. Yes money makes the world go round. Yes, its terrible. Aren’t we shallow.

Suck it up buttercup.

There's an extra 10k a year, does there need to be more?

If you risk the kind of money Lee has then yes. How much money have you risked in your business venture? If someone risks £250,000 its absolute idiocy to think that person should be rewarded financially by just an extra 10K.

It’d make more sense to keep the money and do nothing. You haven’t got a business head Chris have you.

Nope, I built my business from nothing, zilch. From being unemployed and skint to being self employed and earning a good wage in 5 years. I must be a complete half wit....
I nearly had enough work to start employing 2 years ago ( without having to sell any assets ), I decided against it.
Again I must be a half wit.

I won't discuss this anymore as mentioned in my last post.

Come on guys, lets calm down a bit eh? 

I think we can all agree we have different goals and ambitions, and no one has the right to force their opinion as the correct one. Lets try to keep the name calling and insults away from the forum.

Lee, can i just mention something please? Personally i think its great that you have really pushed yourself, not many have the gumption to go for it like you have, and i really genuinely wish you all the success in the future. However, its all a bit grandiose and preemptive, i think that's why some on this forum are a little incensed at the attitude they perceive as nothing short of nauseating.

It is not building the business, or doing national leaflet drops; spending thousands and thousands on marketing, or having big goals of being successful that's the problem here. Its the fact you have failed to consider the feelings and concerns of others on the forum, you have been; and are very confrontational with your attitude and boastful over your own aspirations, its not really required and in fact if you were a little more humble and modest in your attitude you'd go much further in being respected on here.

I only say this from my own experiences, i found the more I tried to big myself up in front of my peers, the harder fall they want to see me take. Its never good business sense to tell your competition what your doing to make yourself look grand, especially on a public forum your just not going to get respect no matter how successful you will be.

best....

Don’t throw your rattle out the pram chap. We’re all entitled to our opinion, you’ve voiced yours enough in the past and tried to ridicule at the same time, you’re not being a snowflake all of a sudden are you?

If you haven’t risked any money to get where you are fair play, but if someone does they will expect, quite rightly, added remuneration and reward.

I've just read through this entire thread, read some of Lee's previous posts & have previously read his story in an Ionics magazine.

I don't understand all the criticism? 

I think he's done great, and if I can achieve half of what he has will be well chuffed.

As iv said twice now, for arguments sake I won't discuss Lee or his business anymore.
