Tough at the top

I see poor oul Joseph O’Brien has an income of just 400 euro a week.

Better off on the dole considering the hours he must put in.

Wonder what wheels he’s driving…

That’s just about what McDonalds pays a week…..

I’d say a lot of those lads have things fairly well organised in terms of tax avoidance and liability. Different companies are probably set up and Joseph is probably down on the books as an employee receiving €400 a week. The rest of his income can probably be included in business expenses somehow.

He needs to go to business school

Amazing what the courts will believe. Do racing stewards run them in their spare time or something?

Someone I know owns his own business which is worth a considerable sum and the company pays him(self) a small salary. Eveything Joseph has is tied up in the business and you can’t eat horses – well; you can but you know what I mean.

Value Is Everything

So the money he doesn’t give to himself goes into his company’s bank account lol
He still gets it all at the end of the day though doesn’t he via savings, his wage is just his pocket money
