Change of career (53)
One2note: I've decided to change careers & go in a completely new direction...
I handed in my resignation & decided to concentrate on a new business venture .. I know it's a risk but I feel it's a risk worth taking..
Does anyone else feel that they need to break free from their current employment & take a chance on something that may have better rewards in the future?

Best of luck with that. .A brave move
I'm happy in my job. But if I weren't, I would change. Life is too short to be unhappy.

I'm glad it's worked out well for you...
I'm at the stage of my life where I don't have the responsibilities I had previously of having a family & mortgage.. I can now afford to take a chance on a career that's been close toy heart & can benefit others.

Great idea.
I'm willing to fund that project & if that succeeds , we can expand & sell sand to the Arabs & ice to the Eskimos .
Meet you in the monastery

I've always taken chances in life.. Some work , some don't but I've been thinking about it for a while now & I'm at the stage of my life where I can afford to take risks.. I know my social life may be put on hold for a while but sometimes we have to make sacrifices in life to succeed .

Only joking
I do hope it works out for you though. I like people who take chances, and just do it.

It's not really a big investment , as I received most if the funding through sponsorships & the "princes trust".. But I'm both excited & enthusiastic at the same time.
Thanks for your support.

thelad2007: brave move, best of luck
Thank you..
I'm more exited at the prospect & seeing those youngsters turning into professional footballers.
It will take a lot of time & dedication & the coaching staff are ex professional themselves, so the foundations are there. Only time will tell.

One2note: No.. It's a football academy for children between the ages of 7-15 I've set up for my future son-in-law, who's career was tragically ended , due to a freak injury .. The project will give many kids with a promising career, the opportunity to get into professional football by coaching & giving them the right guidance on how to achieve their goals.
Did you say the Prince Charles Trust is involved?
If so, yours is a well worthwhile investment.
I wish you and your SiL every success.
In 2002 some of my colleagues and I did something similar through the Aircraft Restoration Group that we co-founded in the 70's.
We were / are teaching young kids privately proper engineering instead of the crap they get at schools. We encoraged them to join the cadet forces and have had several lads and a few girls accepted for skilled trades in the RAF, Navy Fleet Air Arm, Army and the Army Air Corps so Good Luck from Mike

That's very admirable, anything that helps the young to achieve their potential and give them a great start in life is worth while.
Genuinely,, good luck with your venture

The thing about football that differs from other sports, is that it's still a sport for the underprivileged , where as most sports , such as rugby & tennis , are more for the university types.. I'm not in it for for cash & nothing would give me more pleasure that to see a youngster achieving his dream & developing into professional sportsman .

You don't need coaching to make the west ham team.

Interesting you should say that about rugby.
In this country it was even worse. It was not just seen as an 'English' sport and therefore church-run school (the majority of schools ) wouldn't allow it to be played, but also the sport of the rich (fee-paying schools played it)
But in Limerick, the home of Munster rugby and setting for the depressing Angela's Ashes, it was considered the sport of the working-class.

I agree totally, you have a good heart, and there is great satisfaction in knowing that you have helped them to achieve their goals.
