Inheritance tax is a minefield for us. We do not want to leave our daughter with a big tax bill after we die, but our house may be worth £1million in 20 years. We have been advised to make a trust under Section 102. We've also been told to give our daughter three of our bedrooms, then if the last person survives seven years the house will not be included in IHT. This is because it will already be registered with the Government, and she will only have to deal with probate on the remaining funds.

The summer holidays are right around the corner. You might have been able to get a cut price deal for a week in the sun and picked out the best card to avoid hefty fees. But when you're handed a card machine on holiday, should you pay in pounds or the local currency? Depending on which you pick, it could lead to a much more expensive holiday. Growing numbers of banks are offering no fees to travellers, making it easier than ever to spend while abroad.

Organising a holiday for 20 people is not for the fainthearted. Sarah* started the planning for her girls holiday in December 2023, and after a year and a half of waiting she couldn't wait to get away. The villa in Portugal she booked was the perfect getaway for her and her girlfriends. But when they arrived, their dream holiday couldn't be further from what they expected. Sarah had the difficult task of organising the holiday for the large group while in New York, where she currently works.
