No, I guess it's UK divided by the same language thing again, I need tax admin, scannng, fling, posting and bookkeeping staff. We call that labour.

At the top end qualifieds in tax, fins and accounts. We specialise in tax planning and we say "labour intensive".

My own specialism is insurance, pensions, tax, estate planning, investments and derivative products. I also train and undertake specialist advisory work in the international arena. I was once (pre WH) a big cheese and I lost my confidence. WH was so controlling I gave up the training and advisory work as he wanted to build a scaleable business where the value was not in my work only. The business isn't really saleable unless I had given service to any buyer.

I lost my confidence, how can a fat, ugly, unattractive, stupid and idiotic woman run a successful business?

She is now, as there is no choice.

OMG V, I am hoping that is sarcasm on your part. You are an intelligent woman who is beautiful. If you were not across the ocean I would come over there and plant a big fat kiss right on your mouth if I thought that would change your thoughts.

Look, confidence drives attractiveness right. It is not the other way around. People are attracted to confidence in all arena's of life. The fact is, you have a lot to be confident about. People can't even touch your line of work because it is mentally difficult for most. Even the people who work with taxes, estate planning and investments don't even try to mess with derivatives. I know this because I am highly qualified when it comes to accounting and taxes. I know how confusing financial planning and investments can be.

V, your knowledge is superior to most. You know this and I know this just by the small amount of time I have spent on this forum. You have to embrace this and run with it. Customers come to people like you because they are uncertain. When it comes to their money people don't give a dang about how you look. They want to know that you know what the hell you are doing. Humans do not like uncertainty. All you have to do is take that uncertainty away from them. Confidence is displayed by you mannerisms, your attitude, and you knowledge.

Use your assets. Some people show skin and look sexy. You are not 26 years old so that is not going to work for you. You are motherly, you have compassion for people, you care about people and it shows. Use this to your advantage. Be confident in who you are. Your damn good at it. The good thing is that you do not have to fake it--you already do these things.

I wish I could take month off and come work with you in your business. It would be so invigorating for me. I have not gone 100% in a long time. I have been apathetic with my own job. I just feel inspired by the potential of your business. It just needs a kick start.

Yes, you may adopt me:)

I have thought quite a great deal about your post.

I put something about the emotional side of this on my thread to keep this one sharper.

emotional discussion around fins

I wasn't entirely being sarcastic, more pyrrhic. Yes, I am very good at what I do but there is damage in this which has caused destruction.

Your thoughts have made me understand that actually I could do with a good business partner, perhaps someone younger I could bring on to takeover the business.

I think you would enjoy as month in Vs crazy business, it is exciting, except for the admin not being up to date.

So plans for this three days of moving forwards until Monday.
