'I quit my 9-5 job to start a business - now I make £80k a year and I'm much happier'

A mum who packed in her demanding retail job in favour of starting her own business has said she now makes around £80,000 a year - and she works from the comfort of her living room.

Anastasia Visnakova, 33, first started making her own phone cases in 2016 after watching tutorials on YouTube, and now, she and her partner Robert Henson run the Happy Avocado store on Etsy where they sell her creations, the Daily Star reports.

Last year, Anastasia raked in a whopping £92,000 from her business - which she runs from her home in Glasgow - but has said her yearly earnings aren't always that high, and her average is around £80,000.
