If not, are you (21) ….. …enough attention to your need for time away from work? There are two big problems here. One is finding a job that does not involve excessive hours, a job where you are still (22) seriously even if you don't frequently work late. The other is deciding how you want to spend your leisure time. If circumstances are conspiring to squeeze that last bit of precious (23) time out of your week, then (24) ……. on to some time, even one hour a week, as sacred. Build it into your diary and never let anyone (25) ……. you out of it. Even if it means doing an extra hour earlier in the week, it's worth it. Another (26) is to try to change the status quo.

Once, the only way to profit from fashion as a collectable item was to buy rare, vintage or antique garments (32)………….mint condition - an expensive business and still (33) which offers relatively risky returns. The modern way has collectors buying more mainstream fashion items that are in the shops now, in (34) ………… knowledge that they will appreciate consider- ably over just a (35) …………years. The returns on fashion investments are not always massive, although estimates of a four hundred per cent return are (36) uncommon. Certainly they are considerably better than the return offered by a high interest savings account and, (37) ……… those who are experts, better than the stock market. The knowledge necessary for fashion investing means investors invariably work in the fashion industry. They often know (38) …………is going to catch on before the fashion press does and they know where and through whom products can be bought. They can spot what is disposable high fashion now but will (39) ………….on to become a classic of its time in years to come, worth far more than they laid (40)……….for it originally.
