Re: Declaring worldwide assets to Hacienda

Hear Hear,
If the Germans were running this thing it might work, but I am afraid it will probably be dumped after a couple of years at enormous cost. As for me it has cost €370 in Gestor fees....

Re: Declaring worldwide assets to Hacienda

Just bringing an end to "al portador" cheques will bring in 10X the amount produced by the 720 fiasco. In fact in terms of GDP I suspect the 720 will be negative. There is no way the disparate bits...
