No you mean crooks declaring their earnings- just because we are self employed doesn’t mean we are dishonest. I’ve paid more tax in the last few years then I ever did when I was employed (admittedly 10 years ago). Buying an asset for your buisness is not trying to worm your way out of tax (they get you in the end), fiddling the numbers or being creative with what they are using for the buisness or whatever people do is a different thing.

Just thought it was a funny Meme I found on-line. 

 

Looks like Im away to be furloughed and wont qualify for help in the UK or Norway, such is life.

Do good by others and good things always come back around for you. So Im not worried.

talking about tax just read this (Times), (July payment on account can be delayed if you want to)

The July 2020 self-assessment tax payment deadline, which is paid by some self-assessment taxpayers who make advance payments on their bill, has been pushed back to January 2021. This means that those expected to pay some of their bill in July, will now be expected to do so in January. There will be no late payment penalties until this time and workers don’t need to do anything.

 

for people like me who are sole traders its a bit like an interest free loan until January next year, I'll probably pay mine or I'll just gamble it away trying to buy the new low of the stock market (trying to catch a falling knife) BT yielding over 10% and office bods working from home, probably upgrading to fibre

Could be enough to save the day for many- even if it just buys time ?

Do you find people often regard you as a prick?

In real life? Nope.

 

How about you?

I'd imagine quite frequently.

Your impression is people think you're a prick quite frequently? Ok, well Im sure there's a good reason for that.

 

Thanks for the Ted Talk-.

Ok boys and girls back to the main topic....will we the (SE) be getting any help? Well not so far as our government cannot decide which is the best way to do it,looks like end of the week now that something may be sorted but let’s not all hold there breath...it’s a difficult thing for the government to sort out but threatening us the people with a £30 fine isn’t going to help the situation one bit..I for one will keep working until I know that something is in place for me not to go
