Listen to your mother for fucks sake. Go out, learn how to be a brain surgeon, make shit loads of cash, then you can afford to play!
People say money aint everything, well trust me, you cant do f**k all without it and you wont have much dicking about gamekeeping...
If i could start again, i would do it all different, get a decent job, then once you have made a decent pot of cash, then feck about for the rest of your life!
My hearts in GameKeeping, i would much rather be outside then cooped up in a room. Money isn't everything, aslong as i have enough to get by then i'm not fussed.
