tax free work the rest of the year

[bengasman]

Today is the day where we stop working for darling, and start working for ourselves; the average working man had to work 134 days to pay his taxes.

If the government spending plans work out, next year we will have to work to somewhere in june to pay off our taxes.

If there is a shortfall, which has been the case for just about every single one brown's forecasts , it won't be june, but july

This has been the shortest year to tax free day since 1973, apparently.

How does that work if the new tax year started on April 6th.

Oh it's a mistake: it's MPs' tax-free day

If you run your own business like I do, you get taxed BEFORE you earn anything, whilst you are earning, and afterwards.

If you are an emplyee, you could do the following:

Count the amount of days until april 6th.
Take april 6th as first date and add the number of days you found.
Consider 1 januari - 6 - april a tax holiday.
Work til beginning of october to pay your tax.
Last 12 weeks of the year are tax free.

To pre-empt your next question:
The average man probably exists no more than the average family.

That is a "typo", it is the longest. It is the shortest period where we work for ourselves in stead of for darling.

Ah Jonny Walker got it wrong then: I was merely repeating parrot fashion!
