    The guide to IT Contracting?

    http://www.mobipocket.com/en/eBooks/...3&Origine=2411

    Just wanna see if it is worth getting a copy of it.
    If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

    Yes. Well no. Its seems OK though. Just haven't started reading it yet.

    I ordered a copy a week or so ago but it was damaged. I complained and so they sent another.

    So I have 2 copies now. I will keep the damaged one but have the other undamaged one to sell if you're interested.

    PM me if you would like to buy.

    Thanks
    I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.

      Haven't read it, but doesn't look that appealing. Might be a good link to give to newbies asking daft questions though..

            Wouldn't touch it with a bargepole, he's a septic so what does he know about setting up a LTD in the UK (I think the hint is that the price is in $.) Look at all the other books he's written and I would suspect that he's a bit of a snake oil seller:

            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              All me. Thats mys top 5 books of all time.

              And the pick of the crop...

              "50 new ways to tie you shoe laces". Followed by "How to walk and talk at the same time" in close 2nd place.

              Seriously though I'm reserving passing judgement on the book until I've read (skimmed through) it. If it saves getting stupid anwers to stupid questions posted on this site then it may just be worth it..

                Surley that beats contracting for a living, so why bother?

                  I think I have this book - with a different cover.
                  You can have it for a tenner, its in mint condition.
