What Is a Self Assessment Tax Return and Who Needs to File One?
For many people in the UK, income tax is automatically deducted from their salary through the PAYE (Pay As You Earn) system. But for millions of self-employed individuals, landlords, company directors, and freelancers, things work differently. They must declare their income and pay their tax directly to HMRC through the Self Assessment tax return process. Understanding how this system operates — and who it applies to — is essential to staying compliant and avoiding unnecessary penalties.

Top 10 Hoaxes That Tricked The World In 2025

Young People Don't Matter
I just read an article on Vocal about how Six Flags is shutting down any leftover parks this month in November. I started getting really depressed thinking about it. I've seen the end of so many of my beloved companies and brands. I had to watch Kmart and Sears go down. I had to watch Payless Shoe Source and Albertson's Grocery kick the bucket. I had to watch Chik-Fil-A leave the mall, expand, and dismiss their delicious cole slaw. I had to watch Disney World and Busch Gardens evolve from $25 entrance tickets to $125 entrance tickets. I had to watch the Dollar Tree go from every item costs $1 to you don't know until you're at the register is what every item costs. The world changed so much the past decade. We lost more businesses and "norms" or symbols of Americana culture the past decade than in the three decades previous to it. It's been truly heart-wrenching stuff.
