After 57 Years in the Field of Tax Preparation and Tax Control allow me to respectfully share with you that I have noticed 9 Perennial-Reasons Business Owners overpay Their Income Taxes:

1. Fear;
2. Intimidation;
3. Laziness;
4. Ignorance;
5. Being Bullied;
6. Thinking They Are (and...AFTER contemplating that our Great Nation is $36Trillion + in the red...Prove these for me, OK!) funding the Building of Roads, Railroad Tracks, Aircraft Carriers, Airports, Hospitals, Care Centers, and an International Health Care System;
7. To get their bank to lend them money;
8. To have something in common to talk about at social gatherings with like-minded friends...and many employees...;
9. Think that they will lose the ability to care for their loved ones if someone else does not provide them with a "job" so they can cause their financial obligations to be met.

All of THIS in the face of the fact that (alledgedly) 73% of us die in debt, and that according to the Journal of the American Medical Association, POVERTY is the 4TH Leading cause of death in America, just behind heart disease, cancer, and smoking!

I see more and more people "waking up" to this reality, each year.

Are you?

💸 Shocking Financial Truths You Need to Know! 💸

Did you know...

📉 73% of us are in debt at retirement.

💔 Nearly half of us die broke.

💰 Only 10% have $1M+ saved for retirement.

😱 And the median savings for those over 75 is just $83,000.

But wait, there’s more...

🤑 Over 2/3 of us get a tax refund every single year. This means 70% of us are OVERPAYING taxes! 🤯

SUMTHIN JUST AIN’T RIGHT HERE!!!

And here’s the kicker:

On March 2, 2025, the Treasury Department announced that entities are NOT required to disclose their "beneficial owners" or comply with Corporate Transparency Act regulations.

For those who’ve already paid for filing paperwork, don’t worry—you can write it off as:

✅ Legal & Professional Fees
or
✅ Professional Education

Maybe someday they’ll add an “Oops” category for allowable deductions! 😅

⚠️ Important Reminder:

The extension-filing deadline for S-Corps, Partnerships, and 12/31 Fiscal-Year-Ending C-Corps is March 17, 2025. Don’t miss it!

I have always loved a fireplace. But THIS is the first time I've had one that was easy to put the wood in vertically as well as horizontally.

I like how it "looks" in full flame, and it burns noticeably hotter, too!

Life is good...

Long time...no post...

This marks the beginning of my 58th year of playing the Business Tax Game. Been thinking of writing a book about the whole thing for several years.

Just completed a draft of the "Preface" and the "Epilog" of just such a book.

Based on experience and observation I've decide to call it something like "Instinct Over Convention; Reclaiming the Entrepreneurial Edge".

It's about applying YOUR OWN mind and instinct to Formal Education and Professional Guidance.

Anyone care to review the Preface and the Epilog?
If so...just drop me an address...

Have a safe New Years Eve...IF you want to...
