Apparently the federal, state and self employed tax that goes to social security and medicare adds up to quite a lovely percentage...
But i will research other accountants since you guys mentioned i could probably reduce that, thank you all for the advice.

Also for anyone interested in the new card information from SKANAB , the card has like stated above 1020 $ ATM limit, 3 $ fee at ATM and it expires in 2 years . Thought i'd share that since i received that info.
do yourself a favor

create an s-corp its not hard to do and get yourself a good accountant.

a good cpa should cost you 500 a year on avg to do both your personal and corporate returns. will save you a ton of money plus tell you everything you can expense.
