Marcus White, 51, from Dorset, says he lives off £200 per week despite earning a fortune
A millionaire who earns £145,000 a year says he lives a frugal lifestyle and still worries about money despite his income. Marcus White, 51-year-old commercial landlord, claims he lives on a mere £200 per week.
The managing director and life coach shared: "Although people might think I'm in a strong financial position, I do still worry about money. I'm the complete opposite to a consumerist - I don't like consumerism at all. The father of two said: "Woodworking was a passion of mine and I decided to turn that passion into a business. It was very difficult to make money - I started the business in 1997 and in the first year, I made about £4k which works out at £1.90 a day."
Marcus's father encountered financial problems which led to him selling his farm, retaining only a small plot of land with derelict buildings. He added: "I re-mortgaged my house, secured a small loan from my father and - with my savings as well - I began redeveloping the site into an ecological business park."
