Business Spread Betting


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I have been spread betting for just over a year and have made good gains, approximately 25%.

I understand the gains are tax-free.

I wanted to know if I can use this as a business. If so, are the gains then taxable.

How are they listed in the P&L accounts?

I'm not sure if I am clear enough.

Kind Regards,

In regards to using spread betting as a business, it depends on the laws and regulations in your country and how you operate your spread betting activities.

Some countries may consider it a form of self-employment, in which case you may be required to pay taxes on your gains. It's always best to consult with a tax professional or financial advisor to get a clear understanding of your tax obligations. They can also help you with the listing of your spread betting gains in your P&L accounts.And if you're interested in learning more about business valuation, you can check out this link: Good luck!

    • I've been exploring the world of play-to-earn gaming recently, looking for something that's not just about endless grinding but actually offers a fun and rewarding experience. OGC really stood out to me because it combines gaming with a sense of community in a unique way. OGC isn't just a game; it's a platform where you can play, earn, and even help shape its future. You're not just a player; you're part of a community with a voice. The idea of earning crypto while playing games is exciting, but what makes OGC special is its focus on community involvement. Your feedback can directly influence the development of the game, which is a big deal. I've also heard that the OGC token is available for pre-market trading on Bitget. While I'm still getting to know the platform and its features, it's definitely something to keep an eye on. Has anyone else tried OGC? What has your experience been like? I'd love to hear your thoughts and any tips you might have.
    • I am anticipating the impact of this listing on Mongy.
