Tax is one where it's easy to get real grumpy, real fast.

We don't like handing the money over, and we suspect we're paying more than we should be.

But it's confusing, so what can you do?

According to Bakir Hussain, well, plenty.

Bakir is a chartered certified accountant with yonks of experience, the founder of Finex Accounting, and has both a book and a newsletter dedicated to making this stuff simple for us.

And thank you because we need it.

It turns out the gap between what most of us think we can get back from the tax system and what we actually could get, well, it's a big gap and it's costing us money.

And after today, we want to make sure you stop feeling confused as well as avoid nasty surprises and also stop leaving money on the table.
