    Paying myself before latest invoice has been paid

    I don't come on here often so forgive me if it's not obvious, but are you the resident troll? Let me make this more clear. By 'salary', I meant my entire earnings for the year. I probably should have put 'after tax earnings', or something similar. I have over £400k in investments, so it's a...

    Paying myself before latest invoice has been paid

    Best Convertible

    Are you talking about the old TT or the new one? I've got the new one, mine is a coupe though. If you go for one have a look at the TTS, it's faster than the 3.2, has better fuel consumption and has a lot of extras bolted on (LED lights like the R8, quad exhaust, xenons, silver wing mirrors...

    work, plan b or benched?

    I don't think it's that bad out there. My contract expired last wednesday, I went for an interview with an asset management company yesterday and got the job. Only one week on the bench so it's not too bad.
