Can anybody explain to me the attraction of opening your own home to unknown members of the public? I'd of thought there were many other things you could do to generate an income before the need to let people you don't know enter your home.

I have never seen anything of yours that I would call crap, just amazing value and even more so after your magic dust has been sprinkled.

My hôtel cost twice that but did have a roof of sorts, last 3 years it has brought in an ROI of 40% + and thats including the renovation costs, will be lower this year and probably next but will then surge.

It...

Yes I know, but not such a shock if you pay them quarterly. :innocent:

Not really your 'salary' but based on profit after expenses have been deducted...so really just about the same % as anyone else.

I think two different things are being talked about here. With a sarl, he is right in talking about a salary. The company taxes on profit etc...

Plenty of Brits go to British restaurants to socialise, that might be a surprise to you some folks get out and about. :lol:

There is a French café at Ussel who have an English speaking afternoon every Wednesday. There are very few Brits there but it gives the students a chance to practise English.

Yes of course.

BUT, you know more than the...

He can register as an individual tradesman, but not as a general builder.

Thanks crystal what is that called in French, they will ask me.

By individual tradesman, I meant like.... plumber, joiner, mason, etc... assuming he has a trade he wants to work at....and is is qualified, or can prove experience of working in that trade. He'll need...

Some info from the plateformes like AirBnB:

Seems to sum up the situation, they are adding an amount to my tarif which equates somewhere close to 1% of the net figure I recieve after paying their commission, trouble is the payment is made directly to me and they are not backcharging it (is that a word? I meant retro-facturer) also they are...

OK, I see now…I wasn't using netentreprises, I was using l'autoentrepeneur.fr, which this time sent me to the URSSAF site, on which I had to set up a new account, although my history is all there ….. sorry for the false alarm!

I don't usually leave my declarations this late, but this time… :oops:

As Billy Connolly said of his sexy Sadie , when he grabbed her, she just farted and flew out the window :lol:

I assume that under AE, while you will be expected to charge and collect TVA, you will be unable to set any expenses against it. Eitherway it's the worst of both worlds IMO.

I would assume that you could, common sense would say so but this is France so you are probably correct, it raises the question though if you dont need to keep books as an...

Deleted, reason - brain fade!

The restaurant/chambres d'hôtes owners and the transport company owner probably have more stress and much more to lose than LD should something go wrong with their businesses - schadenfreude is not a positive emotion either, but sometimes it's good to have.

Every day has been a zero cost dignified holiday for me since 2004.

This is what happens in a small hamlet near here, told to me by a French resident.
An unemployed man does diy, light building work etc for the population of the ville for cash. A gendarme lives in the village, knows all about it, says nothing.
I asked how does this situation play out. He said it works very well, the villagers get their jobs done...

Sorry to jump on this post but I am looking for someone to do a barn (2) clearance, nothing a charity would want, have tried ALBF suggestion of searching on LBC for - presentation de service but all I get is people who prepare powerpoint presentations, we are in 22270 Jugon Les Lacs, Brittany.
