To-do

A page detailing the things that I need to do... I'll put something more formal together later.

Things I might have to do something with:

CURRENT

TODAY

• Build work desktop computer
  • Awaiting SATA cables They've arrived; now I just need to build the thing
• Chase Argos about unfilled order
• Sort financial management
• Try and determine where leak is in main bathroom
• Sort out finances - what do I need for next 10 years, say; being creating accounts to do this with. Take into account:
  • £500 a month going to Prinicipality (savings)
  • £100 a month going to Taya & Ted's accounts
  • £1000 a month going to joint account
  • £300 a month going to food account
  • £1500 a month spending money
  • Total: £3500-ish per month (Ten years: £420,000: / 85,000 = 4.94, i.e. 5 banks to ensure govt guarantee)
  • Income: £800 per month from Noctam
  • Income: £500 per month from Graham
  • Total needed: £2200-ish per month (Ten years: £264,000: / 85,000 = 3.11, i.e. 4 banks to ensure govt guarantee)
  • 85,000 x 4 = 340,000; 85,000 x 5 = 425,000
• Move some money into Taya & Ted's accounts
  • ... and set up a standing order to continue to do so

In Progress

• Update SAGE with bank transactions
  • Really fucking hard work - still not working - tried twice

Financey stuff

04/06/2019: From meeting with Rachel Rigby @ Accountants:

Drawing a salary from noctam

Salary : £8632 pa - standing order Dividends: 7.5% - accountants will prepare dividend vouchers/directors minutes/etc Or ring up and prepare isolated dividend stuff

Thresholds First £2000 - 0% tax 2000-48000(-8632) i.e. 2000-39368: 7.5% Beyond that: 32.5%

Basically, it's a discount on income tax.
