Everton and Liverpool footballers face huge tax bill and possible bankruptcy

[Prevenger17]

That's a daft suggestion... condoning tax evasion/avoidance because an ex-Everton player is on the list ?

That's precisely what I'm doing. Laws shouldn't apply to Tim Cahill.

Exploitation is stealing in my book. The capitalist system we use is designed to make the rich richer and the poor poorer. We live in the most economically decided world ever. It is morally wrong that 1% of people can own more than the other 99%.
Come the revolution they are all up against the wall.

By all means, please use revolution to exploit the rich and powerful and steal their money from them

 

[SerenityNigh]

You only need assets worth $1.8 million to be in the 1%. So just over £1 million... Prob a couple on here worth that I reckon..

The largest continent in the world is full of people living in abject poverty, yet here we are arguing over who falls within the 1%? Bunch of sour, entitled tits we are*.

The following sports persons and famous (film and tv) celebs are investors in the tax break company Ingenious Games LLP - some of them could face huge tax bills which will finish them though not all will be completely washed out of course: I ran a quick check and found a few names among the investors. The person who is interviewed in the article is probably Franny Jeffers.

Beckham, Wise, Matteo, Heskey, Jess, Shola Ameobi, Pembridge, Martin O'Neill, Etherington, Matthew Hoggard, Bridges, Neil Morrissey, Robbie Williams, Rob Lee, Barmby, Konchesky, Robbie Keane, Jeffers, Queudrue, Gary Speed, McAllister, Lineker, Hayden Mullins, Carragher, Riise, Lescott, Barton, Sidibe, Marcus Trescothick, Marcus Bent, Neil Lennon, Nicky Butt, Simon Davies, Stephen McClaren, GERRARD, Parnaby, Tim Cahill, Trevor Sinclair, Rooney, Giggs, Butt, ex-Mrs Lineker, Kate Adie, Sacha Baron Cohen

My company check has revealed those names (may have missed an odd one) are among the investors.

May be a bit out of date if they're after Gary Speed.

Really? I thought it would be higher than that.

Nonsense. The sort of thing Kopites say


Example. GBH Gerrard

What's happened here is

These financial advisors have tried to be greedy and go for questionable schemes at 50% tax relief

Than 30% schemes which are more legitimate and easier to demonstrate

Ie these dodgy schemes arent a risk as they've borrowed money and then its just sat there in a bank and they claimed the 50% relief.

Reality is this 30% relief is given as investing in companies is risky (companies arent guaranteed to succeed) the GOV want to encourage it and give benefits to those that do.

Whereas in the dodgy film schemes they're taking even more and contributing even less in tax and to the economy. And doing so without taking any risks ...

Defrauding the tax payers in the process.

Its no wonder this has happened. A clampdown by HMRC. It also damages the genuine Film industry

Nope. Gerrard deserves exile to Siberia. Tim Cahill is awesome and should be knighted for his cunning tax avoidance schemes.

I'll bet the Million Dollar Man used tax avoidance schemes.

Which would make I.R.S a hypocrite for being his tag team partner.

Just my opinion.

Nah, I.R.S doesn't bother with people as loaded as the Million Dollar Man. Everybody's got a price.

Is that the sound of right wing wagons circling again?

What sound do they make? An intense humming?

You should all get of your backsides and work hard, educate yourself and become rich.

Then you can all stop crying that your Nissan Micra isnt as good as my Bentley GT.
