I'm telling you, I'm not exaggerating - the majority of the big contractors are not running LTDs. But if you want to take the p1ss go for it. It's your lower level guys who do all that stuff- because they have too. Contracting at low levels is a one way ticket out of careerdom for them- so they have to do maximum milking. For those who chose their skill set with a wise long term view, who will come back in to senior perm roles on 100k+ at the end of contracting - it's not so important.
I know a BA who jumps through many hoops and pays 10% tax legally. Bores the life out of me he does- once he starts talking abour his complicated setup. The amount of flying he has to do, maintaining properties in various places- ridiculous, and a bit bad taste actually. I enjoy paying a lot of tax, since I take lot of dough out for doing not very much.

2. £100k perm salary is really not that much any more if you are capable.
3. "maintaining properties in various places"? What's that got to do with anything. I guess you're one of his tenants, given that you enjoy throwing money away.
