JT,
I wouldn't accept this statement as a true description of the state of affairs "The gap between such high and low earners in terms of commitment, hours work, effort etc is minimal if not non-existant" ...... I have known many high earners who have pushed the boat 6 and 7 days a week with horrendous hours each day..... but all that notwithstanding it is not about sheer hours of effort or your idea of commitment...it is about what can you get out of the space between your ears that puts numbers on the profit line..... my objection to the fatcats you mention only arises when they fail to do what I have just alluded to and I agree there is all to much of that prevalent......... by the way your postie may be up early , but he's back in bed for 10am and onto his other job by after a nap![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
