Saving account for self employed tax payment
events1
Posts: 1 Newbie
I am self employed, sole trader/freelancer. Over the year I put aside 25% of my contract income received in order to pay my tax bill at the end of the financial year. I have heard one of the best places to save this money is in premium bonds. Any advise on this? The savings total 9k on average per year

There are plenty of better easy access options than PBs in my opinion. Given this is for a tax bill which will have a known due date, you can probably also consider fixed interest or notice accounts that will mature in time for you to pay the bill when it comes due.1
