    Can anyone tell me if i use some of my money from my investment LOC for trading shares or paying for a share trading course. Can i still claim the interest as a tax deduction against my LOC.

    Thanks

    Sure can, but I'm no accountant.

    I think educational expenses must be related to your income source. So a share course is alone not deductible unless you actually receive taxable income as a result of that activity.

    So if I did a dog grooming course then it will be deductible if I am earning an income from that activity ...
