Single mum and beauty salon owner - Bankrupt?

Thanks Miss Spooky, this advice is correct. However we fall into the exception category - my child is cared for outside of the home and along side another child who is not related to her.
We looked into this very carefully before we set this up.0 -
Apoligies,
That's what happens when you skim read! And there was me panicking when I thought I was going back to work and using my aunt who was registered.:oBSC 289A life lived in fear is a life not living!Proud to have dealt with my debts.0 -
Also my mum does all my childcare and I pay her £1200 a month via child care element of WTC. If I were to take a paid job , will they WTC still pay my mums wages or will I have to? I do not want to take my dear mum 'down' with me. She retired from a well paid job to look after my kids and cannot afford to be 'sacked' by me - she would lose evrything too.
ill do it for a grand....:beer:0 -
Bet you would whilst sunning yourself in Benidorm whilst Banky ! Shudder to think what else you have sought refuge from. My kids will stay in the care of legal and registered people.
Come on maxmycard again - This board is intended for supportive and helpful comments, yours are now irrelevant and you are becoming one of those awful boring farts who witter own with little or no relevance.
Put a sock in it if you cannot add any value to this thread. I am looking for genuine helpful interjections and if you cannot add value then don't bother.
I am officially ignoring you - ****!0 -

Im sorry but your wayyyy outta line. Maybe if you read into the post the intent. which was a joke and MMCA is a great guy and very helpful.
Maybe if you took the time to read some of the posts on this board you would realise that.
He and no one on this board have yet been judgemental or been negative with you, and tbh if your going to be rude and brash I doubt you will get the advice and guidance your looking for.
As insinuating that MMCA was avoiding something in the UK, thats not really an assumption you could make, and really you shouldnt come on here JUDGING PEOPLE for there geographical location. It means nothing. This site is accessable from all over the world, again if you took the time you would see posts from people in Austrailia, USA aswell as EUROPE!!!!"Well, that sounds like a pretty good deal. But I think I got a better one. How about I give you the finger, and you give me my phone call"

Show dragon - there are no jokes when you are in this mess. The comments , not just in this post have been outta line from this mmca. Not acceptable to me. Perhaps if you were to read the posts more thoroughly and empathise with the person thay were intended for, you may have adifferent opinion.
Any way - stop wasting this thread WE have digressed. If you chose not to advise further absolutely fine by me.

As you seem to have a problem with the very helpful advice on here Haddit, they maybe i can suggest you go to one of the helplines that have been suggested to you several times, by many users.
And Max may have Benidorm on his profile, but at the click of a button, i could have Barbados....but it doesn't mean i actually live there.
Max has been very helpful to you from what i've seen, and, as he has run his own business, i feel his advice is more than useful.
This is 'straight from the horses mouth' advice your recieving,
If you'd prefer more 'straight from the book' advice then call one of the helplines, but you might not like what you hear there either.The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter

Hear hear, bltn. mmca has always been helpful imho, but you are of course allowed to disagree with him, haddit, and to not have the same soh. I've been finding CCCS very helpful over the past couple of days. Why not give them a try? CBx0
