Negatives; I’ve had a difficult month with my stocks and shares losing value and simultaneously losing patience spending over 40hours a week at work or commuting to work. I’m very frustrated by my slow progress.
Positives; I’ve planted some semi dwarf pear trees in my garden and a pink currant bush. I’ve harvested some radishes and my broad beans have started sprouting. I’ve managed to get a trial contract editing scientific magazine articles remotely, though I don’t know how well I will manage with it. If it suits me, it will pay roughly £968 a month which I think will be enough in semi retirement with the addition of dividends.
Semi retirement is 22 months away which seems far too long.
