Some of those very same people still live on the same estate they grew up on as do their own children etc..I managed to put myself through college studying architecture, but having also to cover a multiple number of jobs to make ends meat, I finally had to give this up due to financial difficulties but rather than walk down the crime ridden road, I decided to join the British Army where I served for many years, until moving out into the private security companies, operating throughout some of the most hostile places in the world.view less
