Good point, time to get another bank account.Originally posted by Archangel View PostDon't keep more than £35k in one bank in case it goes bust!
At the moment I keep all my company profit in the account until I've figured out the most tax efficient way to invest it which, in the current market seems to be stuffed in a mattress.Some people are like slinkys, totally pointless but the thought of pushing them down a flight of stairs never fails to put a smile on your face.Comment
