Seems like they were updating production during work hours for most people which is pretty odd imo. Usually I would expect them to get this done between midnight and 2-3am.
If you have a global infrastructure with worldwide customer base you'd want to do critical upgrades when everyone's at the office ready to jump at issues.
> However, the system of corporate earnings taxation currently in force in Estonia is a unique system, which shifts the moment of corporate taxation from the moment of earning the profits to the moment of their distribution. In other words, earning profits in itself does not bring income tax liability, which arises only when earned profit is distributed to shareholders.
I looked through a bunch of those videos now and the bad audio quality really turns me off.
Also, calling your thoughts on the stock market "lessons" is a red flag for me. The stock market is kind of a superbrain made of millions of individuals. You might have some theories of being able to do trades with an above average risk/reward ratio. But if you are so sure about your theories that you call them "lessons" you are probably barking up the wrong tree. Or simply try to impress people who want to be believers.

You can stay in the UK for a further 5 years from the date you get pre-settled status and the deadline for applying is 30 June 2021, as long as you were living in the UK before 31 December 2020.
The settlement scheme is basically just a mobile app for you to take a selfie, scan the tag in your passport using NFC and answer a few questions like "Are you currently in the UK?", "How many years have you been living here?", "What's your NI Number?" ..they will then check your employment records electronically.
So apply after you get your NI No. by letter and your limited company is setup. You will usually get a decision a few weeks later which is just an email, explaining how you can prove your status online to others (like landlords or employers) if needed.
Regarding taxes, google for "optimal directors salary and dividends uk" and you will find loads of articles by accountants explaining the how and why in detail.
