We talk about the trend of charity for likes before getting into a chat on retirment. Does anyone want to retire these days? What does it even look like? The shape of 'retirement', the next chapter, or whatever you want to call it is often very different for freelance folks who have more control over their own destiny.

There are plenty of instawankers preaching the benefits of having different share classes within your business, often referred to as alphabet shares. We talk about when they are a good idea, and when they are likely to cause way more issues than they provide benefits.

You can amend the default rules, and there are some really imporant reasons why you want to think about that, as well as having the right shareholder agreements in place. If you thought this stuff was not something you need to think about, guess again amigo.

This is the first episode in a mini series we have crateively called the Pay Less Tax Mini Series. The next few eps will focus on tax efficient structuring of your business, how to get the basics right (or the Greatest Hits as Alan likes to call them) and then some next level ideas once you have the basics nailed. (or Deep Cuts, if you are Alan)

This started as a 2 parter, which is what you will hear us refer to it as, but we realised making the next ep that a mini series is better to do this important topic justice. Any Q's of future topics, email us at pod@bwbtb.co.uk
