    Depends on the hours, experience, company, position I guess ...

    But from what I hear it's possible, once you don't mind giving up most of your time.

    Not really. Of course it depends on the hours. But I wouldn't be expecting it going into security....more like 400 a week I'd say.

    I don't know if the rate varies from firm to firm...

    If you worked 12 hour nightshifts 5 days a week you should make between 5 and 6 hundred a week.

    5 days would be nice, but alot of the security firms get you to do a 6 day week. All nice and legal, as you've signed up for it in the contract, thus you don't get extra for going over the "normal" 39 hour week.

    I imagine this happens but the OP said he was willing to put in the work and wanted to know if he could make 500 a week. Its definitely possible.
