hi all
I now been contracting for 9 months.
My main goal is to purchase a property next year spring/summer time.
In terms of saving, I been keeping all profits in my ltd company and only paying myself enough to stay in the first tax band.
I know people think you need a good 3-6 months of living costs for rainy days but people I spoken to think 6 months is a lot and usually you just need 3-4.
What is the general views on here about that?
Do most of you keep the warchest in your ltd company as profit?
Also to mention I currently pay around £250 a month from the company to my pension. Not too much so I got profit left over.
In terms of purchase of property, is it recommended to take the deposit as dividends in 1 go or does it not make much difference tax wise to do it over 2 tax years?
Thanks
