I could earn anything up to £1000 a week is this true ?

There are too many variables to answer your questions, other than the above is rubbish but for 0.01% of the trade.

You will earn out of it, but you will have to work sh** hours dealing with some rather sh** punters.

Is that for you?

Work to live. Don't live to work.

That's the best advice you will ever get. :D
