I think this post says a lot about your obsessive personality than my bad spelling or grammar. You seem to get very angry very quickly about quite frankly a non issue for me and 99% of everyone else, spend your time being more productive and helpful rather than picking people up on your pet obsessive hobby.Originally posted by TykeMerc View PostAh the dyslexia excuse, never seen that one used by some plank that can't be bothered to use the correct their/there/they're, your/you're, too/two/to where/we're/were......
1. I didn't know you're dyslexic (or so you claim)
2. There are quite a few forms of dyslexia
3. I'm actually dyslexic
but I can manage to cope, it just needs me to take a few extra seconds to read what I write.
4. Congratulations on blagging an £800/day rate (in your fantasy)
The fact is sloppy English which just takes a few seconds to correct sends only 1 message about you and what you're trying to communicate and that's far from a positive one.
I wish you good day sirComment

I'm assuming paying the same or a very similar dividend amount, for tax efficiency purposes, over the tax year, for a number of years (e.g. £30k dividends on the SATR for 3 years), wouldn't raise any eyebrows, either, in terms of resembling a salary. Rather the issue would be a single, lump payment of salary and dividends together (without demarcating them), which again is something HMRC would only see if they chose to review your business accounts, and which again, as you say, would mean you were already "on the radar" for other reasons.Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostWaited a year (or ~6 months, I think, in reality), although that obviously depends on your circumstances. Dividends shouldn't be viewed as salary anyway; they are a payment for profitability. However, let's be clear that, if you do elect to pay monthly dividends, this is perfectly fine providing you follow the rules on dividend payments (and don't pay them together with salary in a single payment, as that would be asking for trouble).Comment

A lack of punctuation is as bad as bad spelling. :-)Originally posted by TykeMerc View PostThe fact is sloppy English which just takes a few seconds to correct sends only 1 message about you and what you're trying to communicate and that's far from a positive one.Comment
