Member Info for PostmanPorsche

Ah cheers. Why they couldn’t have told me that!

I’ve just contacted Barclays Smart Investor and they don’t provide the service of telling me my profit/loss figures for the year. It’s going to be a nightmare retrieving manually.

Many thanks Mad. That would make things so much easier and official in case the Taxman asks me to prove it!

Cheers. And finally, will Barclays (whom I’m with) be able to tell me my gains and losses over the last few years or would I have to dig all this info out myself? I’ve never made more than £12k a year but have lost a bit on various shares.

Cheers Mad (I’ve not green binned you). I’m just trying to calculate my losses. How far can I go back, is it 4 years?

Can you offset losses in your ISA or is that a bit cheeky?

The same with me Monkey, JT Macs on the AML board. I’ve 275,000 at 26p.

Has anyone spotted Mr.Musk loitering around Eurasia’s offices?

I’ve just done some research on tinternet on tax on dividends. I’ll hopefully only have around 145,000 shares in my normal account (after I’ve done the rest of my bed & isa). Assuming the dividend is £1 the CGT bill would be £15,621 if I sold the shares but £43,084 if I took the dividend. I am retired and only get £19,000 income. Therefore I think I’d have to sell them before the dividend is paid. Ps. I’m no tax expert and will probably employ an accountant for this exercise.

50p? You can walk the plank Tilly! £2 more like.

£3 is my guess as if we’re selling 90% of the company then that’s about $10 billion sale price? Roughly

Would you care to elaborate?

Tricky, I’m already retired (and living the life of Riley) but my girlfriend wants to join me. Every morning she asks if there’s a red dot. I could do with her continuing in work so I might not tell her when it comes!

$20 billion would be splendid.

You could be right there. Or else why would Eurasia mention ANY company worth 21 billion in an RNS?

He owns some food supplement company doesn’t he? Someone on here found out a few days ago and he confirmed it.

Ps Monkey I’m a short term holder with 275,000 shares so I’m not knocking Eurasia.

Monkey70; but we’d already got to non-binding offers before the vote.

I’m just curious about EUA needing our last vote to make our sale negotiations better. Does this mean we’ve had unacceptable offers?

Well said Dancesca. And refreshing to read a post that’s well written unlike some, ‘long9’ for instance that’s just gibberish. I may have only been a humble postman but I know my grammar.
