55 year old Ian Whitlock finally hit lucky after a rollercoaster
experience in the financial services sector. The misfortune of
being made redundant twice might have sent a lesser man reaching
for the bottle, but Ian is made of sterner stuff. He explains. "I
was fed up with the financial services game and wanted a
