          It went from $7k to $15k in the time you went from the Topic field to the body field?

                i'm in about the same boat. that SE tax is a fucking whore and a half. I'm about to fake my death, move to namibia, and call it even.

                    get a LLC or another corp and forget about the Self Employment taxes. Then you can pay out medicare/social security shit heh, but it is still cheaper than SE tax. Atleast for me.

                        I don't understand. Are you bitching or trying to show off by pretending to bitch? $7k self employment tax would put you at what? After deductions about 40k?

                          Yeah, that tax really sucks, out of the $52K in federal that I paid, $16K of that was in self-employment tax

                                      i pay no tax mainly cause they dont know about it..
                                      plus if they did my internet actvity falls under the category of a 'hobby' not a business hence it not assessable income...
                                      hence no tax...
                                      this is NZ though..
                                      SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                                              if you incorporate you will still pay other taxes so don't think you will be saving that whole 7k.

                                                  Keep thinking that. We don't need any economic migrants coming up here to take advantage of our goodies.

                                                        Exactly what I thought. But I assume the other $8k was from his day job, which would mean he earns $35 there. Total income $75K Not shoddy, but nothing to boast about.

                                                        If you want police, fire services, paramedics, roads, hospitals, goverment and all the other things that go to make a country run you have to pay taxes.

                                                        These taxes go largely to pay workers who put the money back into the economy. Or you can cut on the services or run up massive debts to pay for them and give back tax cuts to all that put money bacck into the community.

                                                        Or you can give it to those at the top so thay can buy another imported car or a house overseas.
