some people say declare all income, some people say tips are a perk, some people feel the rest of us should pay tax to support their life style.
where do you stand?

Totally honest but not with women. Little white lies and mystery keeps them intrigued and on their toes :)

don't work for taxman :o, but read a post about someone's "rainy day fund", just wondered how many others felt like that. I don't think tips should be declared, but I spent years working in hotels, and the taxman just asumed you got tips.
you wouldn't declare a couple of tinnies, so you shouldn't have to declare "get yourself a pint", but all money worked for should be declared.

I was only joking mate!!! I think that tips should be tax free IMO. Funnily enough did you see in the news about the restaurants that were using tips to count towards the minimum wage? It seems some of them didn't think that the employee should be rewarded for their hard work LMAO!

Waste of time. ::)

Everyone knows that 99% of self employed people don't declare it all.

Everyone also knows that 99% of people aren't going to admit it.

...and don't say "...but I do!", because you're a big fat liar.

Where do you get your figures from.

I declare every penny that comes through my business, I try to get all my customers to give cheques so there is very little cash involved.

Concentrate on improving your turnover instead of concentrating hiding a few quid from the taxman.

Its always the same ones who take money under the table who dont go very far in business, i see it in all walks of life not just in window cleaning

Why would you deliberately pay more tax then? ???

Can't see how it would stop your business going so far.
