An example of it possibly being worth getting into the detail - like P11D benefits (why not since you're taxed on them!), patents (maybe applies to a certain poster or two!), redundancy payments (could be a biggy), etc.

I get money occasionally from royalties from records I have played on over the years, they are interesting because they can be classed as capital gains or income, bit of a grey line between the two.

Furnished Holiday Lettings.  There's another thread expressing annoyance about the tax treatment, COVID bungs, etc for these (and their mark on local communities) so we can add this little tax benefit to that as well!

https://hartleypensions.com/pensions/sipp/contributions/

Relevant UK earnings means any one or more of the following types of income:

• employment income, such as: pay, wages, bonus, overtime, or commission and other P11D benefits.
• income from self-employment or a partnership
• redundancy payment above the £30,000 tax exempt threshold
• income from a UK and/or EEA furnished holiday lettings business
• patent income, where the individual alone or jointly devised the invention

What a joke

When I'm PM the entire tax code will fit on one side of A4 for personal and on the reverse for business.

The wife of one of the Romanians at work needs an operation. So highly do they think of the sainted NHS that she is going back to Romania for a couple of months for the operation and rehabilitation.

My Latvian colleague is pregnant; she's going back to Riga for the birth.

Dont know about music but certainly my royalties from copyright material and IP are classified as self employed income. They are all related to my current or previous jobs though.
One thing I did make sure of was that all that was included in my will as I dont have direct descendants. My solicitor had to go away and look it up!

I had a payment not that long ago that was from someone buying the rights off someone else for an album I made in the 1980s, which a payment to the band was in the contract. Could have been classed as capital gains, but I took it as income and stuck it in my SIPP for the extra tax relief.

Looks like it's Newmont Price Share to Gold, which is a retarded metric (very fitting for Tavi's profile, ngl). I don't know what sharecount Newmont had in the 90s but I do know they basically doubled their count in 2018 overnight to buy Goldcorp. Share price only matters if you're a holder. For long-time comparison purposes it's useless.

 

Edit: looks like it was 0.2B in the early naughties, compared to 0.8B to now. And people dare to ask why mining stonks suck.

And a PIP form.

I came back from my Dorset trip early this week as the weather was absolutely awful, saw a few water mills and plenty of water. Also saw my first migrant hotel near Bournemouth sea front, they were all sitting in a covered bar/ dining area at the front near the pavement smoking shisha pipes all on their mobile phones.

What a change from last year, back then everyone was talking about becoming a property investor, now it is like a soap opera episode that @DurhamBorn has wrote the script. Everyone claiming PIP, women in their 50s with kids now 20 who's benefits have obviously stopped, and they are claiming PIP for the kids who either are unable or unwilling to hold down a job.

What a mess, it was fucking embarrassing.

Somebody's got a new set of crayons or summing?

What justification is there for drawing that second turn?  Kuz feelings?

He may be right in the direction, but it won't be through such graffiti!

I'm sticking £20k in a cash ISA on the first day of the new tax year. I know there are loads of stocks yielding way more than the 4.45% I'll get from Barclays but I've decided I can do without the hassle of pouring over where to invest it. I'm sure I'm getting lazier as the days get longer

Put it in a S&S iSA and get 3.2% and wait for a crash.

Careful there young Pip I resemble that statement 

From what you've said on here in the past you have done very well out of this country, and fair play to you for doing it! - You saw the game many years ago and set your stall out and with some luck and good judgement became a serial landlord and retired minted at 50 (Hoping to be correct here its all from memory).

The game has changed and unless you have the brains or connections to get a good job or something going your best way forward is to get your yourself on the Bennies and milk it for all it's worth, bang the kids out and keep going as long as you can and maybe have some side hustles.

It's the governments, lords, and the system that's really the problem they are the biggest workshy scroungers of all.

Agree…..it the game not the players. 

When I take over the world would change the game though 😉

Francis has just confirmed my Silver bias

 

I think it's reasonably well documented that silver arrives alte to the PMs party and runs hard.

from nalaysing the gold silver ratio over time,the only thing it does with regularity is call the top of the gold market as it clsoes.

we jsut got some mroe fre and paas today.

I think what people like this guy miss is that you dont trade the underlying and the people who can dig it out effectively,you're looking for who the suckers are going to bid up.

siunds harsh,but barriska dn newmont will be amongst the first recipients of insto moeny.when the instos bid up those two and agnico etc,then I plan to tkae our cash and bid up the tier twos before they arrive.

If I wanted effeicent diggers of the yeloow stuff barrick andNEM wouldnt be it.

decl :long NEM 6% at $44 and Barrick 5% at circa $15

Probably did the right thing.

I would have thought that IP follows the general rule of 'income = fruit, capital = tree' and that, therefore, royalties would usually be income but the rights themselves capital.

However, it seems that courts have traditionally taken the view that basically anything you get for a copyright is income, on the basis that creating copyrights is an artist's 'profession or vocation' and, as such, all receipts therefrom should be treated as income under the old Schedule D (now Part 2 of ITTOIA 2005).

See BIM35725 and CG68250.

GDXJ running up to 38 today.  remember it was 31 at end feb.  That's 20% up in just over a month.  Like someone else said, this is a widowmaker but I have fun trading in and out in the range 30-45 and back again.  This time I think I'll take half at 40+; we might be on the cusp of a sharp gold breakout in which case GDXj might go much higher and I'd hate to lose it.

Ideally I'd like one more dip down to low 30's, and then the election in the USA looms - imagine what will happen with a black swan event causing a rocket in gold demand for safety; has been as high as 120 before.

Yes I’m firmly in the Hunter camp on the direction from here. $50 silver, $3000 gold in the initial run up. I don’t see many pullbacks left anymore as the train is leaving the station and silver elastic has been manipulated for so long.

Golds left it’s correlation with a falling $, DXY, S&P500 and gold is all ripping at the same time. The factor on what’s changed is because of heading into a stagflationary environment in 2024 like I said last year.

No one believes inflation is going below 2% and nor does gold. But the asset market is acting like it is as if rates are already dropping. When/if the Fed does it will send into overdrive. But those cuts will not be because of the wider financial environment, it will be political. As I said the other day Powell is almost formed a cartel with the other central banks to cut regardless and use 4% as a new metric.

It’s a US led meltup, G7 countries languish aimlessly watching dwindling into recession whilst Asia is buying PMs to protect their own currencies. Asia is preparing for something big. 

When the US meltup implodes, you’ll want to have cash reserves aside. That will be the long anticipated BK. Gold and silver crash too (like 2020) but will first out the blocks. Then in the commodity super cycle until 2030 from there pick your target. $10000 gold beyond etc.
