What’s an Insolvency Practitioner?
Someone who arrives after the battle and bayonets all the wounded.
If you really want to make money in the recession, become an Insolvency Practitioner. I knew one once who so upset a workforce that they came to get him. He had to barricade himself in a room and call the police to get him out.
Types of accountant
There are three types of accountant in the world.
Those who can count and those who can’t
We’re one of those – not quite sure which – probably the fourth. Contact us if you want to find out.
Simpler Tax?
There’s a new proposal to simplify the tax system with a much easier form so that taxpayers won’t need an accountant. The new form has only three lines:
1. How much did you earn last year?
2. How much do you have left?
3. Add 20% to the figure in 2.
Send the amount in 3 to us.
Just in case you have any doubts – this is not true. Too many accountants would be out of a job and HMRC can’t afford to lose the tax they pay.
Little chuckle!
When does a person decide to become an accountant?
When he realises that he doesn’t have the charisma to be an undertaker.
But not all of us!
