Read previewThis as-told-to essay is based on a transcribed conversation with Simmy Dhillon, from London, about financially supporting his parents.
They stayed in their blue-collar jobs for so long because they couldn't afford to take risks.
It's been my proudest achievement, and I don't think anything can top it.
AdvertisementIn June, we paid a lump sum of around £51,000 using dividends from the business to pay off my parents' mortgage.
If I had a salaried job, even if it paid well, I don't think I'd be able to support my family in the same way.
