yes once upon a time you could self cert yourself after chucking a monkey at a reputable (or not) financial advisor/mortgage consultant, it really was that simple. Not all of us have had proper jobs and salaries unless its a business we set up for cleaning purposes. We don't all want the restraint of full time work as an employee,it takes all sorts and however you earn(ed) your coin is your affair.

Roida is correct about straight mortgages since last Spring (I alluded to this earlier) and screaming is also correct in that realistically those of us who have done it as ghosts for years will struggle to gain meaningful employment outside of setting ourselves up in something to do with food or property. In each case we must have access to funds because nobody legal is going to lend it to us. And screaming a six figure sum is only a bad summer or winters loss. Better to get your roof paid for even if its £30k for a barge.

Different woman, SPOT. Lived with her for 10 years, things not going that well, thought she might be feeling insecure because I owned the house, so I transferred it into joint ownership. A few weeks after that she presumably realized what an attractive woman she had suddenly become and realized she could do a whole lot better than some grim old PROPUNTER. She announced she wanted to split up and that she'd consulted a solicitor who confirmed I either had to sell the house and give her half the proceeds or I had to buy her out. Because of the rise in value of the property there was no way I could find that sort of money, and mortgages had become unobtainable for me.

Yes. I know. "I am a recovering mug."

The problem all PROPUNTERS face compared with 20 years ago is that so many of life's basics are now priced up not in terms of cash, which we can get hold of, but in terms of debt which we can't. Cars, phones, accommodation ... they're all bought with loans. A house used to be 3x main income + 1x secondary income @ 10% over 25 years. Now it's 4X joint income @ 2% over 35 years. I can't compete with that. Lousy, old-fashioned cash is worthless. Debt is the only currency.

Having said that, ph is absolutely right about having some sort of roof over your head paid for and belonging to you, so I did buy and restore a minute, ancient but relatively very cheap house with a decent garden in the sticks which I share with the dog. You need that sort of background security to get through the bad days, weeks ... hell, even decades betting for a living.

I think first and foremost you need a designated 'gambling' bank account, so that your main account (Any wages, household bills) isn't full of gambling transactions, set up a regular standing order from your gambling to your household account so that theres a record of regular payments in.




Spot on.

Your betting account/ bank, must be separate /different from that of your 'living' expenses.

Would you get asked for statements if you had a direct debit going to another bank monthly, but you said it was for an ISA/savings account? You then use that other account for all of your punting transactions and your current account statements are effectively 'clean'?

it has to be done Magic an account or two with separate banks exclusively for bookmakers. Natwest called me in a few times and said this wasn't normal practice and what their A/C was designed for. Always got sorted out as it didn't in 2010 say so in T&C's. Other times they offered to upgrade a/c and access to credit facilities but I didn't want any credit linked to gambling A/C. Deposits from gambling A/C were seen as salary.
As was alluded to earlier I had a lot of actual paper statements linking to over 25 bookmakers worldwide. I had several boxes of statements when somebody needed to check them,just shy of £4.2mill deposited from betting sites worldwide over a 4 year period. The withdrawals and deposits were £3.78mill and every payment either way accounted for. In my branch they would offer me 3 monthly bond deals regularly, the staff knew I gambled and were ok, it was the Regional and above that who weren't keen. EVERY transaction was legitimate and this was eventually forensically verified. Its only turnover it isn't profit, anyhow after the forensic audits the banks were no longer keen to allow me to continue. So we diversify, its the only way or................. get a job!

roida, that seems to be the easiest way nowadays,ducking and diving of yesteryear is a lot harder so obv you set up a cash business and pay yourself a wage with all the relevant paperwork. If it is imperative one wants to rejoin society and get access to credit and/or purchase prop in your own name then you go to work for somebody and obtain the required paper trail. However after living so long as a ghost does one need to change? You could set up your own trading company and pay yourself as an employee with accompanying paperwork for the benefit of the banks to open personal current A/C's,close the company after 6 months but still maintain salary payments to the bank. Clearly tax is a different issue but if it means paying something to maintain your legitimacy then so be it.

My post earlier was meant to mean as if you do have a regular taxable income.

The question is if you sent the same amount to a different bank account than your current account, by direct debit every month so it only shows as one transaction on a statement, would you get asked to provide statements from the other account if you said it was a savings account/ISA etc?
Report ph. March 25, 2015 12:02 PM GMT
quite possibly, a bank search should reveal all a/c's you hold so tinker with mailing addresses (family members). Said bank search would show other a/c but not sure if it has a/c description i.e basic,current,deposit,ISA.
Report garychesterrrr March 25, 2015 12:08 PM GMT
Magic - In my experience if the current account has enough transactions to convince the banker its your only current account he would be happy enough to not want to delve into the other,

ph - A bank search would tell the account type and balance each month, but nothing more, and no transactions,

Obviously as people mention the banks would require some proof of income & unfortunately thats hard to do so there needs to be some 'thinking outside of the box'. There are however plenty of companies that knock up payslips, as someone mentioned earlier though there has to be a way these can be verified - which does get tricky, in an ideal worl the payslips tally with the cash going into the account and would satisfy some people, but others may want to look into it and contact your 'employer'!

Report screaming from beneaththewaves May 27, 2015 4:24 PM BST
That presents its own difficulties, Big Boss. Estate agents can be reluctant to deal with you unless their broker can sell you a mortgage. The standard line is that they won't let you waste the vendor's time unless you can prove you have the cash, and that's not always straightforward if your money is invested in diverse places.

It's a bit like buying a motor. Dealers want to sell you the financing; the vehicle is incidental.

People who want/have to buy things with cash are seen as either iffy at best or simply sad losers by the thrusting, respected professions in modern Britain, such as car dealers and estate agents.

Fair enough.

I bought a new Land Rover Defender back in 2008, and the dealer down here in Somerset was most upset when I got the chequebook out. Insisted I had to take the financing deal, because it was "only" 7.5% APR. I could just keep the 25k invested elsewhere, and be no worse off, he reckoned. Before I had the chance to ask where I could get 7.5% interest even in those days, he glanced at the woman I was with and suggested that she and I could perhaps use some of the money to enjoy a driving holiday together in our new car. Or perhaps taker a look at some of the possible accessories etc.

In the end I had to explain that I hadn't worked for 18 years and he wouldn't be allowed to offer the loan. Oh yes he could. Half an embarrassing hour of phone calls later he had to acknowledge he couldn't, but had succeeded in establishing I was very much a second-class citizen in the eyes of the woman.

The crazy thing about not lending to some is ridiculous though imo. If you are a bank and are in the game of giving out mortgages why would you not lend to someone with a 50%+ deposit? As a lender that is a virtual risk free lend isn't it? If they don't pay, you take the house with all of the equity already paid. It would need a massive property price crash for you to be on the losing end - which won't happen.

Pro gamblers earn their money. Differentiating between earn or won infers the latter has been obtained by luck ( ie lottery  winnings).
Report screaming from beneaththewaves May 28, 2015 10:06 AM BST
Gambling involves winning and losing. Propuntering only differs in that it demands that the total wins outstrip the total losses, but it's still the sum of winning and losing.

And it still requires luck in that you need the wins and losses to be distributed fairly evenly. You can be doing absolutely the right thing, but you can still
be destroyed if the losses are strung together in a single sequence.

Perfectly likely to, say, win £20k one year, lose £20k the next and win £40k the year after. At the end of three years you are theoretically a successful PROPUNTER, "earning" on average over 13 grand a year. But in practice, without substantial savings, you're wiped out even before the end of year two.

I bought a new Land Rover Defender back in 2008, and the dealer down here in Somerset was most upset when I got the chequebook out. Insisted I had to take the financing deal, because it was "only" 7.5% APR. I could just keep the 25k invested elsewhere, and be no worse off, he reckoned. Before I had the chance to ask where I could get 7.5% interest even in those days, he glanced at the woman I was with and suggested that she and I could perhaps use some of the money to enjoy a driving holiday together in our new car. Or perhaps taker a look at some of the possible accessories etc.

In the end I had to explain that I hadn't worked for 18 years and he wouldn't be allowed to offer the loan. Oh yes he could. Half an embarrassing hour of phone calls later he had to acknowledge he couldn't, but had succeeded in establishing I was very much a second-class citizen in the eyes of the woman.



Can't believe you gave this guy more than 2 minutes of your time after he refused 'cash' Insisted  you take a loan when you could pay the lot up front ? I'd have told what he could do with his Land Rover !

Facts
Pro gamblers earn their money. Differentiating between earn or won infers the latter has been obtained by luck ( ie lottery  winnings).

Very true this annoys me people think we just pluck stuff out of the air,what many do on here is akin to a city trader,they are seen by many as clever and a skill, we are viewed with derisory suspicion
