Comment posted to Claiming Working Tax Credit Instead of Job Seekers Allowance/Income Support by Martin.

This is a really inspiring string of comments; I was made redundant last week aged 42 and rather than run the DWP gauntlet I have, after reading this, decided to go down the self employed route and claim WTC.

I have a small business idea which if I have time at home to grow and devlope (whilst recieving working families tax credit) has the potentail to grow endlessly.

It all sounds too good to be true, claining WTC for staying at home developing a business – especially if I claim for 30hrs per week. Plus I have two small kids.

The down side is that I’ve just lost an extremely well paid job so Im gonna miss the income but the dividends are good, i.e. it allows me a chance to make something of myself, developing MY idea, plus having more time at home with the family – The sky is the limit.

Thanks agian for the inspiration.
