In observance of the holiday, our office will be closed on June 19th. We’ll be back on Monday, June 22nd. We hope you have a meaningful and joyful Juneteenth!

When the U.S. Mint halted new penny production in late 2025, many business owners and consumers are evaluating what this change means for day-to-day transactions. As the supply of pennies gradually declines, the shift toward rounding cash payments to the nearest nickel is expected to become standard practice. Swipe to learn more.

Did you know you can rent your home to your business for up to 14 days a year and receive tax-free income? This strategy, known as the Augusta Rule, allows homeowners to rent their personal residence to their business for meetings or events, with the rental income excluded from taxable income. ([accountants.intuit.com](https://accountants.intuit.com/taxprocenter/tax-law-and-news/augusta-rule-offers-tax-savings-for-rentals/?utm_source=openai))

To qualify, the rental period must not exceed 14 days per year, and the rental rate should be fair market value. Proper documentation, including a formal rental agreement and records of the business purpose, is essential. ([forbes.com](https://www.forbes.com/sites/kellyphillipserb/2024/04/11/the-augusta-rule-can-help-you-save-money-if-you-can-master-the-rules/?utm_source=openai))

Implementing the Augusta Rule can provide significant tax savings for business owners. If you're interested in learning more about how this strategy can benefit you, feel free to contact me at 248-914-8146.

As a new graduate, we know that it can seem daunting to start investing, especially when your finances may be tight. This can lead some new grads to push off investing until the “perfect time” in the future.

Here’s why that can be a bad strategy: Time is one of the biggest advantages we have when it comes to investing. Starting early gives your money more chances to grow — even if you’re only investing a little each month. That growth might not look obvious on a day-to-day basis. But as the years pass, the difference can become much clearer.

You don’t need a lot of money to get started with investing. The most important thing is to start early. Even small contributions to your own investment accounts or employer-sponsored accounts like 401(k)s, over time, can give your money more chances to grow. The sooner you get started, the bigger the impact it makes to the value of your investment portfolio.

If you want help figuring out what investing could look like for you or have questions about your current strategy, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help craft an investment strategy that’s right for you.

Large, often random expenses tend to pop up in the working world. Things like car repairs, medical bills, or a security deposit for an apartment can throw your budget off course if you don’t have any money set aside.

Savings can give you a crucial safety net. Even having a small cushion makes those moments, like car breakdowns or surprise medical expenses, easier to handle. Start by building an emergency fund that covers several months' worth of expenses, then branch out and save for other wants or needs. Starting with small, consistent savings is the best way to go. The habit matters more than the amount at first.

If you have questions about what kind of savings account or savings strategy makes sense for your situation, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to support your goals.
