I trust you had a
“successful” Memorial Day Week-End. While
I did work on a GD extension in the morning on Monday (which ended up a "red file"), I took some time off in
the afternoon for a leisurely lunch with friends from NJ in Milford.
* A “blast from the
past” from MAINSTREET.COM that is still applicable – “How to Take a Tax-Deductible Vacation”. I think you
will recognize the author.
* Trish McIntire
writes on “Planning for Your Taxes” in her capacity as resident tax expert at
ANSWERS.COM.
* EA Jamaal Solomon
has begun a weekly series titled “Diary of a Young Tax Accountant: My Long Journey to Become a Successful Entrepreneur” at TAX FACTOR.
Jamaal and I will
be working together this summer on a discussion of top issues facing young and
seasoned tax professionals and are considering discussions of specific tax
issues from a young and seasoned point of view.
* Better late than
never. USA TODAY reports that 7 months
later “Tax Relief Proposed for Victims of Hurricane Sandy”,
The article tells
us “possible congressional action to help
Oklahoma tornado victims could provide the lawmakers with a legislative vehicle”.
* A reminder from
Jean Murray that in many cases “Farmer's Market, Flea Market Booths Must Pay Taxes” at ABOUT.COM.
* For those of you
who are interested – click here to download the Amicus brief supporting Loving
v. IRS plaintiffs filed by fellow tax bloggers including Joe Kristan, Russ Fox,
and Jason Dinesen.
* Ron of THE WISDOM
JOURNAL lists “25 Shocking Statistics About Personal Finance in the US”.
* Professor Annette
Nellen suggests a unique plan for “Modernizing Retirement Plans and Savings” at
21st CENTURY TAXATION.
Her plan could be
used to provide the benefit of the “Saver’s Credit” currently distributed
through the Tax Code (instead of, as she suggests, having low income
individuals’ retirement contributions be paid via the Earned Income Credit).
What do you think
of her idea?
The Final Word-
The TODAY SHOW
hosted a tribute show to the Jersey shore – celebrating the beginning of summer
at the shore – on Friday. The show
highlighted the recovery of the shore from the devastation of SANDY.
For the most part
it was a good show. However the TODAY
SHOW insulted the State of New Jersey by including cast members of MTV’s
steaming pile of excrement known as THE JERSEY SHORE on the tribute show and
providing acknowledgment and credibility to this worthless piece of garbage. These brain dead self-absorbed sluts and
skanks did not belong on a show highlighting the best of the Jersey shore.
THE TODAY SHOW owes
an apology to the residents of the State of New Jersey for this inexcusable
action!
