22 Years of Hard Work in the UK… and Nothing to Show for It!
After working in the UK for 22 years, I found myself with nothing to show for it. No savings, no home, just constant stress trying to make ends meet. The rising cost of living, low wages, high rent, and endless debt made it nearly impossible to get ahead. It felt like no matter how hard I worked, I was stuck in a cycle of just surviving.
Three years ago, I made a life-changing decision—I moved to Norway. And let me tell you, it was the best decision I’ve ever made. My quality of life has completely transformed. The work-life balance is better, wages actually cover the cost of living, and for the first time in my life, I feel financially secure.
In this video, I’m sharing my personal experience of working in the UK for over two decades and why I felt forced to leave. If you’ve ever struggled with rent, debt, and the cost of living in the UK, this video is for you.
