. This week we speak to Shane Harper, 38, a British man living in Bangkok, Thailand. He quit his job in construction to run his own business and often takes home over £13,000 per month.My business, Limitless Entrepreneurs Academy, typically makes around £24,000 to £31,000 a month, with the sales value of deals coming in at around £39,000 to over £59,000 each month. We keep 40 per cent in the business to cover things like tax and business expenses.
I’ve had numerous jobs over the years, including a brief spell at an ice-cream factory and another job where I was cleaning wheelie bins for a living. When I was 17, I got a job as a labourer, earning £8 an hour. I then got a carpentry job at Princess Yachts and ended up earning £12 an hour after working there for nine years. Eventually, I ended up as a self-employed carpenter working on industrial jobs and fixing new-build houses. I’d make about £500 to £650 per week.
