I am blogging about Taxes

I am Blogging about Taxes

I can’t believe I am blogging about taxes!  I thought I would never do it, but here I am writing about a subject that nobody likes!

You see the subject of taxes brings out the worst in many folks. And it doesn’t have to be that way.  You know the saying:  “Death and Taxes”. Well, it’s true. And the sooner we all realize this, the better off we will be. Taxes are not going away. There will be no pure flat tax. So we all have to deal with this very touchy subject every year. Instead of dreading tax season let me teach you how to embrace your tax filing.

 A few quick tips: 

  • As I said, embrace your tax filing. 
  • Try to stay organized for your advisor.
  • Meet with your CPA early in the tax season even if you do not have all your documents.
  • Make sure you ask as many questions as you may have as there are no dumb questions.

The best time to plan is right now!  It is early 2012, and we can adjust your withholdings to make sure you don’t get a large refund or owe too much when you file next year. .
