Personal experience...I have never done a job outside of the UK for less money than I would have got for staying at home.....other than where I have chosen to be a volunteer. Can't speak for UK commercial units that work abroad, but have heard rumours of at least one former colleague who bought a holiday home in France as a result of a certain job connected with a certain dam....
With peace and consolation hath dismist, And calm of mind all passion spent...
