When is it the right time to open a limited company? How should you budget when you're self-employed? And how do you stay as tax-efficient as possible? You sent us your biggest questions about self-employment, so we brought in financial planner and trained accountant Tom Ashworth, who’s also helping T set up his own Ltd company, to answer them.

This is not financial advice. The reason it’s not financial advice is because it’s not tailored to you. We explain the principles of building wealth but if you want personalised advice, it’s worth speaking to a financial advisor. As with everything financial, please do your own research. We really encourage that because no one cares more about your money than you and if you learn the basics then it will change your life.
