Sammi<p>Hi is there a legal person on Mastodon who can answer a few private questions about inheritance in the UK. I live in Sweden and hence trying to get simple answers is difficult.

Emeritus Prof Christopher May<p>The issue of 'fiscal drag' (income tax thresholds not keeping up with average wage rises &amp; thereby moving more people into higher tax brackets) would also seem to be having an effect on inheritance tax.... but here we might want to argue that unlike income tax where fiscal drag seems to be non-progressive (by requiring the lower, but still well paid, to pay more tax), any fiscal drag in IHT might be seen as a reasonable response to the UK's problem with wealth inequality?</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/inheritance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inheritance</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/tax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tax</span></a></p>

Paco Hope #resist<p>Let me tell the story of my “<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/math" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>math</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/pencil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pencil</span></a>”.</p><p>My dad was a bit of a draftsman in his day. He was a builder and so he had some nice mechanical pencils and straight edges. At some point in high school he gave me one of his nice mechanical pencils. 0.5mm lead. Nice grip. </p><p>Throughout my high school career I used it in math class (and sciences like physics and chemistry) because it was nice and it was comfortable. </p><p>Fast forward to college and the same thing: I used it in all my math classes. It had become my “math pencil.” All my mathematical knowledge (sparse as it is) is in that pencil.</p><p>This is my middle boy’s first semester at <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/college" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>college</span></a> and I bequeathed to him the math pencil as he packed for college. He may very well end up a math minor. I just got an update and he’s getting outstanding grades in math. Linear algebra final coming up on Tuesday.</p><p>It was just an ordinary pencil. But through sorta habit and happenstance, and some good luck I kept it 30 years to hand it down. </p><p>My own path to college wasn’t great. Pretty much whatever was in the back of my dad’s Buick when I went to college is all I carried from childhood to adulthood. (That’s another story) but the pencil is one of those things and it was great to pass it on. <br><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/university" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>university</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/inheritance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inheritance</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/family" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>family</span></a></p>
