I suggest anyone who is in a situation where Tax predators want your skin do the same and attack the taxman if they want your hard earned money.
Contractors are victims, not criminals. And it is typical for the spineless Pilot community to side with those wanting to hurt our colleagues.
Have a chat with the guys from VC or RPG. There is a reason why a lot of German FR Pilots are in trouble. Worst case scenario is that they have to pay for the last 5 years+interest and a fine.
And those numbers are not peanuts
