Or would they count as personal investments because I wasn’t registered as a business? Thank you! 🤍

    I just use the standard mileage deduction because it's much easier and I don't have to track my mileage or keep receipts. Yes I have to give to my tax man the amount of miles driven for that car for the year. Having two cars is best and saying one car is full business driven and your other car is both business and personal driven. Yes I use both for the Standard Mileage Deduction on my taxes every year.

    Can you do another video on how to to have keep corporate minutes of your Single Member LLC? I just watched the one you did like 4 years ago and I'm not too sure I understand it wholeheartedly lol.
    I asked a question in that other video, but I don't think you will see it so I will ask it here.
    1. How do you do you keep corporate minutes as a single member LLC?
    2. How often do you have to do it? ( keep hearing, you keep records of every purchase, but that makes it sound like you have to it often. Then I hear you have to do it once a year, so I am confused!)
    3. What ways can you do? Can you just keep descriptions of your expenses in quickbooks? Would that be considered a minute to minute meeting?

    Hi thanks for your video! Can I deduct buyer paid shipping costs on Ebay or Mercari? In the case of buyer paid shipping, Mercari and both Ebay send those charges lumped into my gross sales amount, but I never profited from those shipping charges. I keep hearing you can only deduct free shipping, but those folks just raise the price of the item built into the sale and don't actually pay for shipping themselves. Which is the better way to go for taxes buyer paid or free ship? and can I still deduct buyer paid shipping through C.O.G.S deduction? Cause if I don't, anything I didn't deduct will be considered taxable profit from the IRS at the end of the year, which includes those buyer ship costs I never profited from.

    A bit of confusion... What's the difference between startup and operational? when does the startup phase end?
    I'm guessing whenever it is that you make the first sale correct. If so that means your business is in operational mode. Can you not deduct the full startup cost on the taxes the same year if your business went into operational mode instead of the $5,000 180 months amortization.

    Is the cost of listing items on platforms also tax deductible?

    Hello, I have a small business online boutique, would the inventory be deductible? Or how does it work w the inventory?

    So happy I found your RUclips channel, I’ve been losing my mind working on starting my business and so far they have been super helpful the best part is that everything you talk about is relevant to what I’m doing because I’m in Colorado. Thanks for putting all this info out for free 🤙🏻🇺🇸
