Myth: "I heard married filing separately is better for taxes." 🚫

That's almost never true. There are rare situations where it can help you out, but not for tax purposes. Even then, it still takes tax planning to do it right.

Small deductions add up faster than you'd think. 👀

Canva: $40 a month. Meta Business: $50 a month. That's $90 a month, or $1,080 a year in business expenses.

If you're a small business owner, make sure you're taking every deduction you're entitled to so you're not overpaying the IRS.

We never want to do something just for the sake of taxes.

Most people write a check to charity, feel good, move on.

But if you had a strong income year, there's a way to give more, deduct more, and the charity can still walk away with the same amount — sometimes more.

This week: the giving strategy most business owners have never heard of.

Myth: Being audited means you did something wrong. 🚫

Not true. The IRS doesn't share exactly how every audit gets triggered — there are some things that can flag one, but more often than not, it's not because you did anything wrong. Sometimes it's simply random.

Selling your business for $1 million sounds like a great outcome — until $370,000 of it goes to taxes.

That gap exists because most business owners treat taxes as an afterthought instead of part of the plan. The truth is, the tax outcome of a sale is largely determined by decisions made years earlier — your entity structure, how you build the business, and whether you've actually planned your exit.

This week's Tax Tip Tuesday breaks down stock sales vs. asset sales, a surprising catch with installment sales, and why exit planning should start from year one.
