Inheritance tax ...

[carmanmemoranda]

It was your assumption. So you tell me, perhaps you do cash jobs and don’t pay the tax ?

Keep squirming.

Which of the following things can you not do?
- manage a diary.
- keep a log of customers and time
- Write receipts.
- collect money for the work done (at the time you do it)
- advertise for your services
- keep a log of your costs.
- call HMRC and tell them how much you earned and how much you have in costs.

That is all easy for you. I would struggle with most of those. Think of a stereotypical chaotic boffin type.

Do you think all carers can do all that?

If so what i don't understand is why anybody is on minimum or low wages.

It's so simple

That's the crux of it. "Why not just try harder and do better?".

I'm self employed.

I spend hours and hours (unpaid) doing all the essential background stuff. Accounts . Sorting tax. Paying bills. Ordering stuff. Invoicing. Arranging insurance, training, re testing, licences etc etc.

You’re nasty.

He is, but that's his argument.

Thats not unpaid it should be part of your quote / estimate/ renumeration policy. There is no such thing as free time if you are self-employed.

There is also an old proverb give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime' MBK is of the teaching approach.

Oh. Do I put a line on each invoice saying. Background work £x.

Or is it part of my overheads? That's a cost not an income.

More fool you, get a better paid job where that isn't required. There are seemingly plenty out there.

Oh dear do you not write off costs against tax? or is that far too simple for you and Denso?
