I don't want to give my real name yet as I am not sure about this, which is why I've come here for advice.

I have spent the majority of my life building a career which I have now come to loathe.It pays well ( now), has good pension prospects, I have a sound reputation within it and no reason to think I won't continue to be promoted etc.etc...but I hate it.

I am seriously thinking of chucking it all in and buying a pub.I have only worked a bar for a year, many years ago and had nothing to do with the licensing trade since.Am I mad? Does anyone here own/run a pub who could give me some independent advice?
