remainder of my life. I intend on starting an apprenticeship scheme which will include me learning the skills of a certain trade that
will get me through career.
After this I would like to move into a job which is not only well paid, but a job that I personally enjoy and that is relevant to the things
that I enjoy doing so for example If I was to successfully complete an apprenticeship course then to go on and run a business in that
field.
