Podcast Description

Jeannette Linfoot talks to incredible people about their experiences of being Brave, Bold & Brilliant, which have allowed them to unleash their full potential in business, their careers, and life in general. From the boardroom tables of ‘big’ international business to the dining room tables of entrepreneurial start-ups, how to overcome challenges, embrace opportunities and take risks, whilst staying ‘true’ to yourself is the order of the day.

Travel, Bold, Brilliant, business, growth, scale, marketing, investment, investing, entrepreneurship, coach, consultant, mindset, six figures, seven figures, travel, industry, ROI, B2B, inspirational: https://linktr.ee/JLinfoot

In this episode, Jeannette talks to Chris Wilkins FCCA, who is a Chartered Certified Account and the founder of Wilkins Southworth. Chris has spent 30+ years working in the field. During that time, he has always sought out new challenges, which has enabled him to build up an incredible level of knowledge. As an example, he became the tax advisor for the largest landowner in Bucharest, Romania, has successfully represented many people at hearings with the General Commission and provided advice on worldwide trust structures. 

Chris shares details that will be of particular interest to property owners and entrepreneurs who rent their property out in some way. He provides an overview of capital allowances. Including how you can take advantage of them to legally save yourself tens of thousands in tax payments. He also touches upon company structure, capital gains tax and shares his take on how the tax landscape is likely to change, over the next few years.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• A lot of accountants do not spend any time working out how their clients can take full advantage of any legislative or rule changes. Often, they give incomplete advice.
• Before starting a business or buying an asset speak to an experienced accountant about how to structure things.
• Any advice that has not looked at the long term and includes consideration of an exit strategy is not likely to be sound.
• Many businesses are not claiming capital allowances, which could potentially be offset against tax.
• The tax liabilities for commercial properties are very different to those for residential properties.
• The tax burden will likely rise, and many exemptions and reliefs will disappear.
• In the podcast, Chris looks at the impact wage inflation, labour shortages, potential tax changes and inflation will have.
• The best time to start a business is now.
• Build some comfort into your cash flow and have a contingency.
• Educate yourself. Once you have a good understanding you can obfuscate risk and move quickly to mitigate any negative situations.

BEST MOMENTS

‘If you don’t consider it, because your thinking is too narrow, that is when issues arise.’

‘You´ve got to do the numbers on that exit calculation as compared to whether you want to suffer the income tax now.’

This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANT.

A millionaire at 24 years old, Jamie has grown his property portfolio, and continues to invest and now trains others to enable them to have a firm understanding not only of business and property but also of the mindset that goes alongside being an entrepreneur.

• Things will go wrong. You just need to find a creative solution that will make your venture work. A different approach that adapts to the new circumstances.
• Building multiple options, fallback positions, into your plans creates a robust business.
• Don’t concentrate too much on the risks. Take account of them, draw up a way around them, then get on with things.
• Focus on offering something different and do it 100%.
• It is good to be in business with someone who has a different skillset from you so that you complement each other.
• If you run a business with your life partner, set aside time at home when you don´t talk about work.
• Mindset is vital in business.
• The more self-aware you are the easier it is to spot the triggers that lead you down the wrong path and creates unnecessary hurdles for you.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Go through the risks. Lay them all out on the table. Make a plan for them. Then just get on with what you are doing.’

‘Put daily patterns or routines into your life that just bring the best out in you.’

‘Go bold or go home.’
