You do know that anybody can have an offshore account.
It's only profitable if you have substantial earnings.
So the average working man would be pointless setting one up as his outgoings would leave very little to gain interest on.
If I was a multi millionaire I would have my money offshore also.
It's not illegal. |

If I had their money and was taxed as heavily as the UK government taxes them, I would emigrate and bank elsewhere.
Why do you think these people no longer live on the UK or if they do it's for less than 6 months out of the year.
Bono isn't British by the way and I believe he spends most of the year on tour so why should he pay tax to the UK |

There isn’t many people in the world who if given the choice to profit from a legal loop would reject it.
What would you or I do? We can’t answer that as sadly, we haven’t been fortunate enough to be given the chance. |

Its not just the rich who bend the rules. Look at self-employed tradesmen eg. They are notorious for not declaring all they earn because many people pay them in cash.
I know a few who pay around £100 a year in tax and they are making a small fortune. |

No that's different.
There is no conscription in the current Armed Forces.
You join under your own free will and are under the clear instruction of your job description.
Yes they put there life on the line but that was a choice they made themselves.
I know B is ex Marines and my oldest son Is now REME.
The pay my son now gets is rather substantial compared to what B was getting 10 years ago when he got out.
The bastards put you on two weeks leave during 6 month tours so you have to step foot in the UK to pay tax. |

what ever the rite and wrongs of things
with army wars etc fact is if you have millions you can bend the laws of this land a lot easier than a working class guy in the street
people like fireman nurses police army all under payed in my view no the same chances to bend tax rules for them
with millions these same people bang on about what they give to charitys but a good % of them claim it back with help of good accountant |

Slightly off topic but the wee TV licence guy came to our door a few years ago. Hubby refuses point blank to buy one. I opened the door and the wee guy launches into his speech. I say. " Hold on a minute pal, can't hear you, need to turn the tele down..... "

You are spot on and as you say anyone can have one, I had an account in Jersey 25 years back but interest rates were much more advantageous then, you still had to declare interest & income when doing tax returns, some people did, many others did not. |

Yup, this pisses me off.
But probably if you had their money, you may do the same. Think if I had millions I’d be tempted.
Not sure if you’d get jail for not paying tv license if just a “one off”, probably hit with fine.
(I keep joking about my “Swiss bank account”
As that’s a tax haven also) |

Well, we’ll see if anything happens, doubtful.
I mean bono, the guy that keeps banging on about us giving our money to charity, aye, very good |

"Would you be happy paying 95pence tax on every pound you earned thats ehat happens to so many rock stars . Greedy bastards in westminster fiddle yhe books to line there own pockets . Rant over . "
Agreed but then they are still left very rich... human nature is to survive, whether by blood or money, we exist to rise above that (and enjoy sexual stimulation... we are the only creatures that enjoy recreational sex)  |

Its the tax system at fault they leave folk with no choice.
when it gets to the point your only seeing 40 50% of what your earning you have no choice but to take advantage of means of keeping your money.
They get the same services as wyane and wyanetta so why should they be robbed |

some are mixing up evasion with avoidance
.
if you want to save on tax pay into your pension fund
AVC's
for every £600 you pay in, the get £400 tax back
so if you pay £1200 a month of your net pay that means £2000 straight into your pot |

Remember these people are advised to do this by folk who understand the system and how it works.
if taxation wasnt so great would there be a demand for the crazy fees I dont think so legal thievery has alot to answer for

Yea, seems as if most people forgot about when all that politicians we’re claiming for everything/fiddling the books.
Having spouses/family members on the pay-roll as well. |

"The government encourage these people you only need to look at Sean connery getting a nighthood when was the last time he paid tax in the UK "
and of course Billy Connolly, when did he last pay tax or indeed "stay" in UK, lol
but then Billy's famous words he shouts are "Don't feel sorry for me" "Im loaded", "stinking rich" |

If you pay £2000 a month, which is £1200 from your net wage, over 10 years you will have an estimated AVC pot of £293,000 with a potential growth of £53,500 and a TAX SAVING OF £96,000
.
all perfectly legal and the government encourages you to do it, its a perfect additional lump sum for your retirement and you are saving £96,000 on TAX |

yet you miss the point max for this yr £40000 (govt dosnt pay the whole contribution on this either) to the rich this is chump change.
if its worth them doing though im sure their financial advisors have it all set up.
As ive said above why should these people pay vast amounts of money for the exact same services as me you can live in a castle you still only get one blue black and green bin |

Some interesting reading on the office of national statistics website and hmrc, etc. About 70-75 percent of income tax raised in the UK is paid by 3 percent of people, so maybe there's a bit of a reason there. |

"What about giving him the nighthood for not paying tax he left UK to avoid paying tax look at Lewis Hamilton how much has he paid some great Britains more like tax dodgers "
Probably get a knighthood soon anyway.
Here’s a knighthood for “driving a car fast round in laps/loops”
Why not give knighthoods/dame-hoods to people who ACTUALLY deserve it like all those life savings doctors/nurses/surgeons etc who save life’s on a regular basis.
What thanks do they get, probably like:
“Aye cheers for 20/25/30 years of service to SAVING life’s, now there’s a pat on the back, there’s the door, now piss off”
