    I never understood why people brag about how much they pay in taxes. That just means your accountant sucks.

      my (overpriced) accountant is fantastic..... I'm not complaining at all.
      To owe the Fed $41k is a GOOD thing.

        $41K = $3.4K per month... You're probably right, I'm sure some here don't make that.

                  Sure you can, throw a party. Wrap up the expense into another invoice.

                              hehe.. cool cool.. but they should also help you find ways to shelter more of the income.. a "good" finaicial advisor would/coudl also help if you don't already have one..


                              but if you are already taking advantage of all of those tax deductible vehicles.. than thats great

                                        I bet most of it is social security as well. I get blasted every year on SS Taxes. I just formed an S corp to help reduce that immensely.

                                              yeah.. being an independent contractor does suck on paying SS... that is why it is sometimes nice to work for someone who pays a portion of that for you... luckily you only have to pay SS tax on your first $90K

                                                    If you aren't paying ANY SS Taxes I would love to find out the loop hole around that.

                                                            do you people think I'm stupid or something?


                                                            I've been doing this shit for years. I pay my accountant a ridiculous amount of money..... but they SAVE me 5 times that amount.
                                                            I'm not making shit up here..... this is fact. And if you're getting fucked on your taxes, perhaps it's time you did some shopping for a new accountant.


                                                            I'm certainly not about to lay out my books here for the last 10 years... but I can tell you, they're legal.

                                                                Last time I ever paid taxes, it sure as hell was nothing to brag about and cured that by shipping out to a no-tax regime, - and never paid a dime since.

                                                                There is a level all that tax shit has to stop.
