That is an awesome bit of advice my friend, I’m in two minds about setting up my own gas engineering business at the minute, but scary going it alone

[hansdegroot]

Wise words. It's never too late to start something new. Nobody knows what the (near and far) future brings, neither in general, nor for a specific person.
You can fall seriously ill, become disabled or even die in a way you've never thought of in any moment of your life. But you can also live for another
30 to 50 years. Every new day is the first day of the rest of your life.

Brilliantly said. You will never feel more proud and walk so tall than when you work for yourself.

Love your channel Andy. Happy New Year.

Hi Andy, I've come to this channel after spotting this one on your GHm channel. Would you have any information or inspiration for those wanting to remain a hobbyist but make a little pocket money out of their time ? I'm only 5 years off retirement and are looking to develop my basic woodworking skills into something a little more lucrative but without going headlong into self employment. Cheers for your great video's.

I’d love to see a video on advertising/attracting customers to a new business. That’s the stage I’m at now and there’s very little info regarding this available. Cheers Andy
