      Without work, all life goes rotten.

      But when work is soulless, life stifles and dies.

        if we count 80k gross income for 200 days in a year, how can you net 60-65k? Isn't that too much?
        Assumes a tax efficient solution

        You should be netting at least 70%. I checked UK tax solutions. In Switzerland it is 70% take home and 10% actually goes into a compulsory private pension fund (not some pathetic public sector black hole), which will be paid out in full if you leave the country within 5 years.

        So 60K is easy peasy.

          Important: when companies house stike off the bank account will be closed and any dosh/assets goes to the crown. So make sure you do it in the right order.
          Well, that's not quite correct. That is what they are supposed to do, but they rarely do it. Leaves a big gaping hole for scam artists.

            No, it means you jump the queue, get diagnosed and cured while the disease is still treatable, and live to a ripe old age, while the oiks around you die prematurely of diseases that could have been treated had they been seen in time. It's not the same thing. Shhhh. Don't tell them.

              closing time


              God, I sounded as if I knew what I was talking about back then.

              Try searching in accounting (on this board) for posts by me. I have set it out a couple of times. Long one for Paul Paranoia I think

                I have private healthcare anyway (not that it's much use).
