As the title states i am speculating on shares and am hoping they will be worth alot in the future.

I am not looking at leaving the uk but am wondering if there are legal ways to avoid cgt.

You're welcome, it was about the most pointless post I have ever responded to. If you live in the UK, you cannot benefit from offshore tax havens. So I was 100% correct. If you don't want people to point out how stupid you are, it's best not to post.

Ph has been a source of helpful friendly advice many times for me. With lots of witty banter thrown in for good measure too. You are the first keyboard warrior i have come across on ph.

I feel sorry for your mother.
