You could have driven a Black Cab in the 80s or 90s, but wait, that was a figment of John Q. Public’s imagination, you’d have been lucky to make £650 - £700 per day, unless you were willing to put in 10 or 11 hours.
to be honest even £500 a day when it's all tax free is pretty decent.

Loads of people who will teach you on youtoob
You get a Lambo as well..
Seriously, that sort of rate is usually only achievable with experience or if you are fortunate/clever enough to be in a niche area. Very few people command £365K+ PA on a salaried basis. A lot of people who command that rate on a self-employed basis will not work every day but the day rate is not out of the ordinary in consultancy.

If you pick the right field, are prepared to put up with years of extremely long hours and take a lot of s
t, gain the necessary experience and skills and then monetise them it's perfectly doable. As another poster pointed out law is one way, financial markets, technology, consulting and a myriad of other areas (some not all that obvious. I once knew a guy who made that and more selling flowers for example) all offer the potential to make a "grand a day" and plenty more.
The question is are you prepared to do all the stuff for the years prior to that to get there? And once you achieve it will it really be what you wanted?

They seem to do alright but it does mean working within an abandoned volcano and your boss may be a little bit unhinged and the less said about the pension plan the better.
You get an orange jumpsuit and a sub-machine gun. If I had my time again, I'd do that. They seem to do alright but it does mean working within an abandoned volcano and your boss may be a little bit unhinged and the less said about the pension plan the better.
