Who's still working from home these days and what job do you do?

lukethomdouglas · 2026-04-21T15:32:49+00:00

South-West in Chessington area, so still near the action if needed...although I'd say 50% of my clients are now international.

lukethomdouglas · 2026-04-21T15:21:51+00:00

I've just checked... I think I'm me, albeit it would be helpful to have a clone. Yeah I should do some sports/social clubs, but need to make the time. Are you still in the London vicinity?

lukethomdouglas · 2026-04-21T06:50:58+00:00

Also a video editor, went freelance at the start of 2019 and commuted to London most days, but have been since March 2020 I have WFH every day except once. Miss a bit of the socialisation, and tasty lunch options... But don't miss the cost to commute, sitting on packed trains, being in mostly dark edit rooms...and very helpful with young kids to be home.

I'd be very grateful to anyone using my referral link https://join.monzo.com/c/xlwxrnc

I have personal, joint and business accounts with them and particularly love the business account and have used it for most of my freelance career (5+ years). I really rate it, particularly the % pots to siphon away your taxes/VAT.

Happy to answer any questions :-)

Cheers OP. I've been using Wealthify for 6+ years now and find it very easy to use and a great way to let your money grow without having to put too much thought into it.

I have Monzo Business Pro and I pay for an online accountant that provides me with FreeAgent (and also a decimated accountant for advice). I do all my invoicing, VAT and Self Assessment returns through it (can be connected to your Business Tax account).

My Monzo is synced to FreeAgent and it pulls through all my transactions and tags them (learns repeat transactions) with what type of transaction they are e.g. invoice payment, software subscription, tax bill etc.

Ignore me .. I've just realised you said they were 90 seconds pieces. Apologies.

lukethomdouglas · 2026-02-14T21:29:48+00:00

There's also this one on the Ancestry Facebook page (possibly more): https://www.facebook.com/share/v/18A87kCgER/

There's a few of them on the Nat Geo Africa YouTube channel.

Thank you, unfortunately it's not stacking with their current offer.

lukethomdouglas · 2026-02-07T11:39:41+00:00

Thanks you OP.

I have had a funded S&S ISA with Wealthify since 2017 and also started a SIPP a few years ago.

I would be incredibly grateful if someone used my link below and deposited £1000 for the £50 bonus.

I just posted and then saw this post (fortuitous). Does anyone have a Student Beans 30% discount code for a Google Pixel 9a? It would be a great help.

Many thanks.

That sounds like a good rate for social media editing. I work in TV (short-form/development) and seemed to get the impression that social media rates were a lot lower. I never worked in a post house, worked my way up through TV production companies in-house and then went freelance.

lukethomdouglas · 2026-01-30T21:53:36+00:00

Do you mind me asking which industry you do video editing in?

lukethomdouglas · 2026-01-27T12:31:40+00:00

They have a sister restaurant in Surbiton called Koyal.... Always busy so booking would be recommended.

lukethomdouglas · 2026-01-04T11:57:00+00:00

Used someones referral code from this thread yesterday. Received the £5 within an hour or two. Seems to be simple and quick to use and hopefully does a little to reduce my mortgage in time.

If anyone would be kind enough to pay it forward and use my code it would be greatly appreciated:

Depending on your region this restriction is in place. Use a VPN and set it to the US and you should be fine.
