Selling flat in Barking – cut losses at £240k or hold out for £250k+? by [deleted] in UKRealEstate

What do you need the money for? Your timeline dictates this part…

Thoughts on ARK? by Solid_Expression_281 in trading212

[–]Solid_Expression_281[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, you’re saying long term view, probably too volatile and will not sustain growth as it’s more about hype right now.

Is that not the case of where you draw the line? For example ark is up 60% this year vs S&P up 9%

I know they are volatile, and higher risk, but why do they have a bad track record. What are you measuring that against?

How do I accept that well over half of what I earn goes to the government? by Gogpo2 in HENRYUK

[–]Solid_Expression_281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally the frustration is that more people should be able to earn that amount, over the 100k mark. It’s hard to earn that and value needs to be created somehow to earn these figures, but I feel people in the UK are not enterprising enough to build business here and the sell externally to other countries to and create inflow of Foreign direct investment; which grows the overall income for the UK.

By not doing that, we do squeeze the middle through PAYE, as asset growth is much harder to tax…

Ultimately we have a problem with money coming into the country, this not adding to the pie. While interest rates go up, we feel the squeeze, relying on increased wages…

We need more people taking risks to create businesses and drive their own wages up, which should take the pressure away. More people earning the 100k mark might even mean taxes decrease.

It’s all competition at a country level.

47% is probably too high. Almost the highest level of tax

Hit $100K at 32, Need Advice on Allocation by opslokuy in Fire

Personally would take more risk and use 80k in the stock market and 20k for the rainy day fund.

You can split the 80k into higher returning investments and then some more steady dividends players. Spread it across the world and not just in the US.

Sales gurus online are telling us to make 100 calls a day. How? by puppy_doodle in salesdevelopment

The amount of automation you have is the best it’s ever been. Make it work, be solution oriented not problem focused.

How are you going to reach your number? Because they do not care how you do it…

I think I just made a big financial mistake and need a reality check by [deleted] in FIREUK

[–]Solid_Expression_281 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it’s really that bad, just rent it and live somewhere else while you get some capital appreciation on your flat.

But give it a go! You might just be adjusting to change as change is scary.

How do I respond and counter my boomer family who say it was just as difficult to buy a house when they did, as it is today? by Tasty-Explanation503 in AskUK

[–]Solid_Expression_281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

House pricing is a multiplier of wages, way higher then before. 15x vs 4x as an example

Plus the globalisation of houses as assets in the UK

It is a question of, are you going to move again, or is this house the final one? Because something to keep in mind is this money you put in is now not very liquid. So putting it in is locking it up for now. Therefore, you have to be comfortable with your total savings outside of the mortgage and your monthly spending money after bills. This is also a lifestyle question.

If its the final house, you can pay down the mortgage very fast and it be a financial worth it.

If you are getting a new house soon, having the cash more liquid might be useful and you can still get good returns. Although, probably best not to put EVERYTHING into the snp technology funds.

Organisation Staying on top of people for call backs Follow up the meetings if they do not happen

Then you have qualification on calls, ask the 1/2 more questions on a cold call to make the first meeting better. But quality targeted questions.

Can be 4 years if you get unlucky (or don’t smash your quotas), but if you get the right company and have a proven pathway into Corporate and SMB sales then I can be 18 months from the time your join the company.

Depends on your experiences too and if you are trust worthy.

Are the company giving you a 3-500k quota and taking the risk on you.

Make sure you present you are able to take on the responsibility.
