When you say bucket loads, no, I was working hard and doing ok after many many years in the industry, count 20.Originally posted by Whorty View PostSoooooo, you've earned bucket loads and invested in property, whilst at the same time you're critising those who are BTL landlords? Hmmm...
And you've earned this money via the IR35 lower tax advantages whilst then bemoaning the lack of services in the UK that is paid for via tax receipts. So mate, who do you think should be putting into the tax system to pay for those services you want?
In terms of tax receipts i've put in a substantial amount, 20% through LTD company, no holidays, my own pension and long breaks during recession and early years of contracting. Also another 10% when i finally wind up my company.
I have a few buy to lets, not illegal but even that's being rigged in favour of rich property developers, don't pay stamp duty, don't pay tax on land, deliberately drive up prices and sell private equity off shore companies.
Now you tell me, are you an anti-contractor if so why are you on this site. Also why are you so afraid to stick up for yourselves and back to my innitial comment "Why are the British such Mugs".

You seem to be quite exercised that you've started a thread on an Internet forum and found that people don't agree with you.Originally posted by Shackattack View PostWhen you say bucket loads, no, I was working hard and doing well.

Fella, you're a dick. Just because someone doesn't agree with you they're anti-contractor? What a prize pillock.Originally posted by Shackattack View PostWhen you say bucket loads, no, I was working hard and doing ok after many many years in the industry, count 20.

Your problem is you don't like paying your fair share of tax, even when that is comparatively low compared to someone doing the same role as a permie; suck it up buttercup, you've still had it good for 20 years. Stop complaining, tweak your business model and get on with life.
The world changes, if a business wants to survive it will need to change too - don't like it? Close your company and do something else.I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter man
