I steal software, music and videos using file exchange programs for a living, these are sold at car boot sales for a tidy profit each week. This is suplemented by buying pre order goods then reselling them on ebay for a profit. I don't tell the tax man about any of this so that's a good 40% extra on top. Oh, and I nearly forgot the disablility benefit I claim every week as I can't type or carry parcels any more.
I'm thinking about have 10 or so children as I've heard there's a good profit to be made there and a new house.

However when the pressure is on then at the end of the day the work has to be done and if you don't achieve it you don't get booked again.
This suits me perfectly at the moment I probably will not take home any more than if i was a permie but for that money I get ALOT more than 28 days holiday out of it which means i can hopefully fit in a few ski trips this winter.
I just wish i liked the actual work!!

I am a commercial copyright enforcer, I scan the net for people who steal software, music and videos using file exchange programs for a living, who then sell these at car boot sales for a tidy profit each week.
