Round 2 answer: B and D. 🌴🛣️ A family vacation and a daily commute are generally personal costs. Business software and properly logged business miles can generally qualify when they're documented. Documentation is where most people drop points.

Round 3: Spot the Mess. 🔍

Look at that chart of accounts. Two lines should make any owner nervous. Which two, and why?

Hint: a line that works as a dumping ground hides where the money really goes.

Put your answer in the comments. I'll reveal it tomorrow and update the scoreboard. 📊

If you've bought QuickBooks and aren't sure it's actually set up to help you run the business, DM me "SCORE" and we'll set up a quick call.

Round 1 answer: MYTH. 🎉 Profit on paper is not the same as cash in the bank. Timing, unpaid invoices, and bills can empty the account even when the P&L looks good.

Round 2 of the Money Moves Game: Deduction or No Deduction? 🧾

Which TWO of these are generally NOT deductible?
A. Business software you use to run the company
B. Family vacation
C. Properly logged business miles
D. Your daily commute

Comment your two letters below. Answer tomorrow, and yes, I'm checking the scores. 😄

Want the scorecard? DM me "SCORE". And if you've been wondering whether your records are set up to support your tax planning, I'm happy to set up a quick call.

General education only, not tax or legal advice. Deductibility depends on your facts.

One of my two open Hot Chocolate 15K sponsorships is the $300 level.

It's a straightforward way for a business, a family, or a friend to get behind a race with real purpose. No complicated process, just a clear yes.

Run.Build.Give. Every bit of support helps us show up for the community, including the IDD and Special Olympics families I run for.

Interested? DM me "SPONSOR" and I'll send the details.

Last week was introductions. This week, let's have some fun. 🎮

I'm kicking off the Money Moves Game with Veronica Jackson's team at Mobile T-A-X and Finances. Five rounds this week, a scorecard, and real lessons you can use in your own business or household.

Round 1: Myth or fact?

Comment MYTH or FACT below. I'll reveal the answer tomorrow, and I'm keeping score.

Want the scorecard and answer key? DM me "SCORE" and I'll send it. If a round hits close to home, we'll set up a quick call. 💬

I'm running the Hot Chocolate 15K, and I'm looking for two sponsors to fill the remaining spots: one at $300 and one at $1,500.

Run.Build.Give. is how I try to live and work: show up, build something that lasts, and give back. That includes the IDD community and Special Olympics, which matter deeply to me and my family.

If you know a business owner who wants to put their name behind something good, send them my way.

DM me "SPONSOR" and I'll share the details.

It has been a full week since we announced our partnership with Mobile T-A-X and Finances, and we are grateful for the warm welcome for Veronica Jackson.

This week she shared the person behind the work and the service principles that guide it. Now she wants to hear from you:

"Clear questions create better financial conversations. Which topic would help you most?"

A. Year-round tax planning
B. Preparing for an IRS notice conversation
C. Tax readiness for entrepreneurs
D. Financial literacy for families

Comment with a letter or a general question. Please keep account numbers, tax identification numbers and personal tax details private. Your answers will shape the next educational series for the 575ASM Community.

Thank you for showing up for new voices and new expertise. Run. Build. Give.

A weekend thought from Veronica Jackson of Mobile T-A-X and Finances:

"Financial literacy does not have to begin with a complicated lesson. It can start with one honest conversation at home.

Ask: What financial goal matters to our family right now?

The answer may involve building savings, paying down debt, preparing for education or understanding taxes. The goal of the conversation is not perfection. The goal is to help family members understand the choices and participate in the plan.

As a wife, mother and educator, I believe knowledge becomes powerful when people can use it in daily life."

Family, legacy and community sit at the center of what we do at 575ASM, so this one hits home for me. Try the question at the dinner table this weekend.

What money lesson do you want the next generation to learn earlier? Share it in the comments.

Friday throwback, part two.

Earlier this week I shared a look back at the years. Thank you to everyone who stopped to watch. This time I want to flip it and ask you.

Looking back on your own last few years: what is one thing you have changed? What did a year like 2019 teach you, and which year in this video is your favorite?

For me, a few lessons keep showing up. Work looked different over the years, but the mission didn't. Show up anyway. Stay curious. Rest is part of the work. And I am grateful for this community that keeps me going. Run. Build. Give.

Share your answer in the comments. Your story might be exactly what someone else needs to read today.

Here is where our new partnership with Mobile T-A-X and Finances meets what we do every day at 575ASM.

Tax planning and financial leadership are two sides of the same coin. Better records support tax planning, and they also support forward-looking business decisions: pricing, hiring, financing, even a future acquisition.

Three questions for business owners to ask before the month ends:
1. Are business and personal transactions separated?
2. Can you explain the income and major expenses shown in your records?
3. Have you documented the business changes that may affect your tax planning?

Clean records support better conversations with your accountant, tax professional and financial advisor. They also help you see what is happening in the business instead of relying on the bank balance alone.

Discipline creates capacity to give. That is how we build, and it is how we keep giving back.

Save this checklist and review it with the person who helps maintain your books. Which question needs the most attention in your business? Tell us in the comments.

A note from Veronica Jackson of Mobile T-A-X and Finances, our new tax partner and an IRS resolution expert:

"An IRS notice can feel frightening, but panic does not create a plan. Ignoring a notice rarely makes the pressure disappear."

Her starting steps:
1. Read the full notice and identify the response date.
2. Keep the envelope and every page.
3. Gather the records connected to the issue.
4. Avoid guessing about what the notice means.

An IRS resolution professional can help you understand the notice, organize the facts and evaluate the available response path.

Important: please do not share account numbers, Social Security numbers or private tax details in comments or direct messages.

If you know someone who has been sitting on a notice, share this post with them. What would make an IRS notice less intimidating for you? Tell us in the comments (general thoughts only).
