I emptied my bank account and "gave it" / did something with it for people with nothing/very little.

I feel by doing so I have given an unkown amount of people a slightly better quality of life for at least the next 12 months.

That makes me Happy  Smiley
That sounds very generous Taxi but how many accounts do you have?

Unfortunately only the one. On my return to the UK it is literally a case of starting my life again

And you gave it away willingly and with good heart?  If so, there no 'unfortunate' about it Smiley Sounds rather cathartic Smiley

I knew I should have gone to school!!!! Yes i did give it away as you say, willingly, so "unfortunately" was probably not the right word to use.

Only just read this thread so replying to the original post, 2 years ago i took voluntary redundancy (because of boredom and fancying a change)from a company i had worked at for 9 years, i'd started as a driver/warehouseman and worked my way to management of the warehouse.

3 jobs later, i've never been happy and as a result i done my last day in my current job last night, later this month i will be starting back at the above company again.  I feel i needed the change but now have seen the job i was in from a totally different perspective.

So for me personally changing jobs didn't work but at least it opened my eyes to much worse situations i could be in.

Good on you. I also do this regularly. I don't want to shout about it, but this seems like the right place to post it I guess.

No, I didn't mean that!! Didn't think you were shouting about anything either. Just thought that it seemed an appropriate place to post.

Imo greed=bad. Sharing the wealth=awsesome.
