maty j 6 Posted July 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Gold isn't any good for this idea HH, That's all taken into account. So looks like it will be an account in a family members name then. Makes sense why it is so expensive then M I'm sure you would R :laugh: I need to get an ISA in my name but all the family have them so they can't add more AFAIK. Something like you can invest 3,600 in a tax year? How could I get 14K in an ISA mart, is that one year? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mart123blue 0 Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 7k per person, if you have a partner that does not use their allowance then thats where I get the 14 from. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maty j 6 Posted July 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Still no better as It would be in my name but I need to get one done. I was always told it was 3.6k a year or is that only on the mini ISA's?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mart123blue 0 Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I am not a financial advisor but I know it is 7k per person. As for anonymous tax free accounts suggest you try this robert.mugabe@hotmail.cox Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was always told it was 3.6k a year or is that only on the mini ISA's?? MATY J best advise is hire a good financial advisor ,they are dear , one charged me £230 an hour ,but i can assure you that when the tax man or vat man comes calling ,the advice you took from the financial man should keep you right ,think about it your leaving yourself wide open . your money in other peoples accounts .madness .Even if you do pay a few ££££ tax ,keeps the nosey c@@ts away from the door .Im speaking from experience .Good luck . got to agree with boots there a mate of mine got nailed...it cost him thousands......he tried to hide it the same way mate..other peoples accounts and all that.....people have been doing it since money began....talk to someone that knows what there talkin about...it will save you money in the long run...if you hide it under the mattress...well its not earning then Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mackem 26,051 Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 Just invest in a side-by-side,hacksaw,and a mask maty Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maty j 6 Posted July 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 (edited) Well I'm tighter than a gnats chuff so I'm not paying for a advisor! If it's in someone elses name I think they will have a hard case to prove that it wasn't for a genuine reason.. If I can't catch a fish with my new rod I think I'll have a tough time shooting a hacksaw masked up M Them ski masks always seem to be twisting Edited July 26, 2008 by maty j Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Caravan Monster 323 Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 Savings account/ ISA information and general 'consumer revenge': http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/savings/ Boring to read, I' m afraid, but will make you money one way or another. With inflation as it is at the moment, even the best savings account will only retain, or very slightly increase the real value of your money, by the time you have paid tax. Like most things in life, it is rare to get something for nothing. If you want to actually earn profit, a degree of risk and involvement would be necessary. Tax evasion is not generally all that clever. Taking best advantage of the complexities of tax law is what accountants and financial advisors are for. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
