What are your New Year's Resolutions? Setting your goals for 2012
Christmas seems to go very quickly, doesn’t it! It’s only a couple of days of festivities after weeks of preparations. However, even a short break does give you time to reflect and prepare yourself for the new year.
One of the most common new year’s resolutions is to sort out finances, but many people say this without devising a plan that sets out exactly what they want to achieve. As Brian Tracy says: “People with clear written goals accomplish far more than people without them can ever imagine.”
The Government has announced that, from 2013, child allowance will cease for higher-rate tax-payers. This is currently £20.30 per week for your first-born, totalling £1,055.60p.a. But, what if you are on the cusp of higher-rate tax relief? Are there any measures you can take in order to keep the allowance? The simple answer to this is YES.
