divorce awful way
I have worked and earned all my life and have found that divorce is an expensive process. Whichever way you look at it, you are going to halve your wealth. If you can avoid it, do. It is an awful process.
age earning moveable-feast
I am now at the age where I can withdraw a 25 per cent tax-free lump sum. I do not put in a set amount because my earnings are a moveable feast.
people one-day ease
A lot of people live in a property that will one day be part of their pension, and that is true for me too. I have an investment I can sell with ease.
world investment mess
Unless you completely understand the investment world, do not mess around with it. It is not something I would go anywhere near.
witch taxes cents
Of course, we all have to be taxed, but once you start to earn more than £150,000, and start paying 45 per cent tax, you are penalised. It is like a witch hunt.
running home wells
It's cool to have a well run, comfortable and inviting home.
party diaries events
A proper family diary with everyone's events and parties in it really helps organise the household.
cleaning clean get-away
There's no getting away from it: you have to clean.
thinking people incentives
People who earn reasonable amounts are being turned into the anti-Christ. I think 45 per cent tax is a colossal amount to take off somebody, and it is taking away the incentive to earn.
pride housewife ifs
If you are a housewife, take pride in that.
trying firsts management
The first rule of management is delegation. Don't try and do everything yourself because you can't.
car use fridges
If your fridge is full this Christmas, use nature's refrigerator - your car!
people magic budgeting
I grew up in a world before people had credit cards. There were no magic cards - it was all about budgeting.
running home like-you
Run a home like you would a small business and treat it with the same seriousness.
