I don't claim to be an expert in tax issues, thats why I pay an accountant. I hand him recipts he does the math and walla, it's all good. I tried to do it myself one year and found out that I'm a dummy and providing the sandpaper while i grab my knees, not nemore. It was all professionally prepared,copies of every statement,and here's the real kicker, there were so many documents that i never even saw at the local post office, that were in my 06 taxes,i.e forms they don't put on the table for joeshmoe at the library or PO. I even read that if you taxes prepared by a former IRS agent you have about a 1-2% chance of getting audited, I'll take those odds anyday.

I still get people saying yeah but your trucks not worth anything & you have nothing to write off. you need to buy a new one to have a write off ???? :roll: i tell them i have no debt no truck,trailer or house pymt & i should go into dept to have a write off ???
heh, heh...I heard a loudmouth in St Louis telling everyone on the CB that if your accountant didn't have you buying a new truck every 2 years then he "doen't know $hit", and that all the guys who are making it are driving new trucks, and on and on...

Paid for stuff is the ONLY way to go IMO.

Why don't you change your deductions? It's your money, and the IRS is not going to pay you interest to keep it for you.
