About the Book
Free Excerpt From The Book (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader) The U.S. self-employment tax is 15.3%. This is in addition to federal and state income taxes. Tax Planning Strategies for the Self-Employed will help you reduce (or even eliminate) self-employment, federal and state income taxes through strategies that have proved useful for more than two decades. *Tax Planning Strategies for the Self-Employed* contains more than 120 illustrative examples. These strategies will help you to Apply "bunching" strategies Minimize estimated tax payments Keep interest expense 100% deductible Realize the value of deducting your "home office" Use the power of the IRC section 179 "expense election" Maximize your travel and entertainment deductions Deduct your "business use" automobile Increase "ordinary" and "necessary" business expenses Avoid non-deductible "hobby loss" classification Other books merely repeat tax laws and reproduce information available for free on the Internet.

It's easy to follow. I don't think it's too sophisticated for the masses, but advanced enough that those people who want a challenge will find one. I think it's a winner. - Susan Davis, President of AMERICAS BEST Real Estate Education Corporation I have purchased your excellent and very comprehensive book...I have examined many other reports and books on the subject...and have concluded that you are the authority in this area... - Bill Young KMT Partners, Inc., Southampton, NY I stumbled across your book and bought it.
