Working for yourself...

'The standard operating procedure of almost all businesses, corporations and industry operating in the UK today is to pay their employees the least amount they can get away with, and just enough so they won't quit'
Phillip Day, UK health researcher & author

Wealth doesn't come working for someone else
By the time you reach 65, there is a 97 per cent chance that you will be dead or dead broke! Over 97 per cent of people who retire are not financially secure. They are dependent upon the state or charity to live. Of those that are financially secure, over 75 per cent work for themselves!

Is your pension adequate?
Probably not. 'For many people the prospect of a good pension, like an investment in your own home, looked like a sure-fire route to a comfortable future...and prospects which were once viewed as secure have become worryingly uncertain...Instead of offering peace of mind, pensions have become a source of anxiety. Today we learn that millions of workers could see the value of their pensions halved unless they start paying in more now. As a result of these crises, critics have rounded on the whole system comparing it to organised theft!'

Alex Brummer daily Mail 16th August 2001 ('Are Any Pensions Safe Now?')

Tax benefits
Aside from the financial benefits mentioned earlier and the freedom of being in control of your time and your life, working for yourself can offer a number of tax advantages. For example, part of your telephone bill, your post, your petrol, travel, computer & video equipment,and anything else that you may use in your business becomes a tax deductible expense.

And, if you become VAT registered you can save an extra 17.5% of those expenses. In a traditional business you would also, of course, pay VAT on your income, but in the system we will show you, the VAT on your income is paid for you!

Sounds even better, doesn't it? Well, read on and find out more, click here
