Hey, thanks for your input. The Canadian system seems similar to the UK. Every accountant is doing this, but there just doesn't seem to be an openness about it. It seems you only know how to do this if you're an accountant, or know an accountant - which was the point I was trying to get across in my original post - you aren't told this in school - they only tell you how to get a job, where none of it applies.

It's extremely open. If you're in the position of running a company, either you find out it's a good idea, or you get an accountant, who will tell you it's a good idea.

Sure, they don't teach you it at school, because most people at school won't start their own companies.
