My husband has recently left work and is now self employed, how much money does he need to save for tax etc? Someone has said 10% which seems really steep? Any ideas? Thanks

Might be worth looking on Small Biz and Charity board, where similar questions have been asked. But to me 10% sounds far too little! As an employed person, I reckon 25% of my gross salary disappears in tax and NI, and unless your husband's earnings from self employment are under his personal allowance I don't see that he'd be liable to pay a lot less than that.Signature removed for peace of mind0
