Nobody is going to f*ck you or throw you out for making mistakes, as long as it is a mistake that you do not repeat. Additionally, make sure your mistake is not due to carelessness (mistakes from lack of understanding or lack of instruction is more forgivable).

CPF is not tax. It is a deduction but CPF is your money. Employer's contributions make it even more worthwhile, because you use it to buy a house which generally rises in value, much unlike renting. Rent is debatable, since I'd or do use CPF to pay off mortgage repayments - which doesn't classify as expenditure or a deduction since I'd get it back upon sale. Tax is the only thing that matters.

How does a banded rate of up to 40% compare with Singapore's very low tax rate (100K is 95K post tax)? Even on a post-tax basis, 76K GBP in real terms is only a bit more than B4 2PQE post raise. Difference of around 10K? Correct me if I'm wrong.

eh bro, say u r delisted or listed uk uni, you still have to train 2 years rlt part a b pt
which is the same as the 2 years sqe TC mah
No one say CPF = tax. Ur comprehension got problem? CPF is a deduction.
CPF is not tax, but is your 2000 GBP deduction for rent considered tax?
How come u go minus rent, then say u only "earn" xxx?
What is your definition of "earn"?
U change goalpost when it suits you

40% tax is only for the band above 50k.
Whatever you earn up to 50k GBP is taxed at 0% + 20%
Which means for the same amt u are earning in SGD at a B4, converted to GBP ur tax band is only 20%

Are American tax rates high? I thought they (NY) only range from 4 to 8% which is quite good compared to London
