Increasing income - what can you do?
A few weeks ago, there was a comment on SS (which for the life of me I can't find now, hence the new thread) which talked about not only decreasing costs but also putting effort into increasing your income. It is very obvious of course but had quite an impact on my thinking. Since then I have:
- stopped moaning about wanting / deserving a pay rise, put my big girl pants on & gone through the process of formally requesting one. The end result being my pay has been put up 2 pay scales
- signed a retention bonus which gives me an additional 10% for this year
- set myself up to make money from my hobby rather than pouring money into it
These 3 things will give me a whopping $34K additional income this year.
Nice
