    Selling car and money transfers..

    Doesn't seem to be anything to worry about here, so long as hes clear the car goes nowhere until its received in your bank. I have revolut along with most the of the other fintech banks, Rev will be perfect for him as he'll have a Euro bank account in there and an GBP one so that he can...

    Nice, what were your thoughts on the i8? Really appealing to me at the moment and I'm not sure why they've grown on me so much lately..

    New Trainers

    The Adidas Ultraboost 4.0 dna are my favourite right now. Hands sown the comfiest trainer I've ever worn and I'll admit to wearing them when they don't exactly go with what I'm wearing just because of the comfort factor!

    Thinking of going contracting as a .Net software developer. Some advice needed.

    Thinking of going contracting as a .Net software developer. Some advice needed.

    Ah ok, it sounded dodgy. So £500 per day you're looking at around 7-7.5k take home per month excluding any expenses then. That's assuming £18k Salary, £100k Dividends. @Maccy are Clever Accounts good with advice on maximising this stuff and expenses or better off with a local specilist account...

    Thinking of going contracting as a .Net software developer. Some advice needed.

    Thinking the same myself but the only way it makes sense to me is if outside IR35 and if the tax benefits are to be believed. Contractors I speak to talk about dividends, director loans and basically only paying 20% tax for anything over their salaried amount (£30-40k). Is this anything like...

    All cleaned up and now on autotrader will miss it but no need for a car at the moment - won't be commuting to London anymore 126k miles (70k mine I think) and never put a foot wrong or thrown up a bill!

    Trading the stockmarket (NO Referrals)

    Re Trading 212. Been with them for 6 months now on the CFD accounts. Sometimes using leverage, sometimes not. They are definitely struggling IMO. Outages at key points (US election day for an hour at open) - went down at other key points too. Currently I'm unable to buy anymore Tesla or Xpeng...

    Nicely Done, I got in at $36.35. Hoping for $41/42 today and will pull out for the inevitable fade they seem to have. Also got into XPEV at $26.35. Out of interest, what blogs/sites do you guys keep an eye on, for example where did you hear about NIO? I've been 100% Tesla in and out for the...

    Boots pay £1.50 to collect instore

    It's this. Sorting out this stuff for businesses with software is pretty much my job. The fact there's 2-3 day lead time on a Click & Collect at Boots means it's coming from a distribution centre and not store stock. It's amazing how many businesses have no visibility of real time stock levels...

    Thanks, it's definitely swirl mark ahoy with this one up close. But the perfect excuse to buy a DAS-6 polisher after all of these years. Been reading about Honda paint, doesn't sound great! Feels a bit under powered at 140bhp but as a work horse I can live with that. Currently get 47mpg on that...
