Frequently Asked Questions

Why do you no longer give tax advice?

I became disillusioned with the process, the research and the environment in which I was required to provide tax advice. I wrote a detailed account of how and when I realised my disillusionment meant that I had to stop being a tax adviser. Taxation magazine published this as a lead article in July 2008. Both the editor and I received much in the way of supportive feedback form others who quite understood and wished they had the courage to do the same as I.

I blogged about the article in a post titled: Why I gave up giving tax advice.
