ANSWERS IN bold
So you won't give me an age then, interesting.
The reason i ask is you look quite young in dragons den,
Thanks! Everyone always said I looked young for my age until quite recently, when they get it about spot on. Blimin crow's feet!
yet you claim to have been earning over 100k for the past 15 years
Approximately 100. At times, down to maybe 80. At times, 120. Its a kind of 'average' thing.
, this is also coupled with the fact that i think in your last thread you said you had enough money in the bank (300k) to put half down on your fantasy house scheme.
I sold my house recently for slightly over 300K. The mortgage was paid off
Now 300k doesn't just appear out of thin air, so you must have had some sum of money during the den, why did you want investment, why not go it alone?
It's all about the publicity. 30 seconds advert during a 6m viewer program on ITV costs about £70,000. I got 15-20 minutes. Prime time. Within a day of the program, I'd had > 300,000 web hits and thousands of pounds worth of sales. As 'dragons den' was sold aborad, I kept getting more sales! I had this plan if they had offered me the investment to refuse as 'I'd performed due diligence on their companies and didn't like the way they operated'. That would have got me international headlines I reckon, and tens of thousands (or hundreds of thousands) of pounds more sales. Why no-one that 'wins' does it is beyond me .. it's mental publicity, handed on a silver plate ..
Something doesn't stack up whichever way you look at it from, you look very young for someone working for the last 15 earning 100k
why thanks again
, given you wouldn't have jumped into this job right out of uni we can add atleast another 3 years onto this making you closer to 40.
I jumped into the job about 4 months after leaving uni. I will never understand why everyone doesn't at least try to do it!! It's a life-changer!
