Whilst the recession has provided a massive blow to the fortunes of many, for some it has been the kick start they needed into embracing a new way of life. It is widely believed that certain stress trigger points cause us to re-examine our entire lifestyle and redundancy is one of those trigger points. Although being made redundant inspires the majority to seek new employment as soon as possible, for the rest it is the springboard to try something new or to become self employed.

The change in finances can also be daunting with a regular salary being replaced by income based on work done. With the need to understand tax returns, VAT and the best way to finance purchases all thrown into the mix, managing your business records can seem overwhelming. This is where having a good accountant really helps. They will advise you on what records to keep, how to best manage your finances and will breeze through your tax return, saving you money in the process.
