I got confused where you mention the progressive taxing. In the example, you said we would be taxed 10,924 @ 24% and the rest would be taxed at the Other tax rates. Is the OTHER in this example, the 89,076? And if so what is the “other tax rates”? I was following then that threw me off. Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for the comment as others may have this same question and I admit it could have been explained better in this video.
So, the remainder of the $89,075 would continue to get taxed at progressively lower rates, going down to 22% tax rate (between $41,775 to $89,075) then, 12% (between $10,275 to $41,775) and finally 10%.
In this video, I have a visual that may make this easier to understand (starts at 3 minute mark): ruclips.net/video/6pEkMBQJc6A/видео.html
@@LYFEAccounting thank you!! After I commented, I went into analysis mode and thought that’s what you were talking about but I didn’t want to assume lol. Thank you again! My favorite RUclips channel as a new entrepreneur!
@LYFE Accounting I had the same question too, but figured that's what you meant. I barely crept up into a higher tax bracket this year, and I feel a lot better now knowing that ALL of that income won't be taxed at the higher rate 😅
@@LYFEAccounting super helpful, i admire your humility and also the "fix it" video, it really helped! In Jesus name.
@@nikkiau1 how is your entrepreneur journey going?
I am 14 and I have no clue why I wound up here, but I’m staying.
Best topic you’ll ever invest time in bruv. Taxing sytem is mad.
Learn about taxes and how you can use credit (debt) and you'll thank yourself so much when you're in your early 20s
that makes 2 of us lmao
I make a third 14 year old who doesn’t know why I need to be here
fourth here but im 15
Crazy how now that I’m older and outta school it’s a lot easier for me to learn
Not even 5 min in and I'm very impressed by the professionalism, simplicity, and thoroughness of the explanation. I would have killed to have this offered as a high school or college course. Using this to better understand ecommerce entrepreneurship for potential investment. Good stuff.
Thank you so much, Marcus!
U will join....
I’m new in your channel and really it’s easy to learn. Thank you so much again.!!!
I agree. Well done. Thank you.
OMG Thank you so much for breaking this down the way you did. It’s embarrassing but I’m 28 and don’t know much at all about taxes.😢
Thank goodness for you 🫶🏾
I'm 29 and don't know much about taxes either!
I still don't get it I got to watch 10x more time 😂
Ok I am amaze of your presentation. I love how you explained the basic tax information process. Your communication was fast but I was still able to understand you well. OMG, you should be a professor for ACCT in income tax.
If our useless education system taught things like this, we wouldn't need to spend so much time playing catch up after graduating.
Thanks for making it easier! Definitely saving this vid.
Very important information here. I know taxes are boring for most people but this info is invaluable
This video was wonderful! Thank you! I learned so much!
Love this video, just getting started how to prepare taxes. You definitely do a great job explaining this up
Loved the info. Very clearly stated.
Great video. Easy to follow along and to comprehend, it also answered all of my questions.
Great job and thank you so much for the information my brother.
this is very informative and well explained. thank you very much
Thanks so much for this, very informative!!
Super helpful! Thanks for this!
Thank you so much! So helpful 🎉
Very good lesson with the topics clearly explained . Thanks
This is the most helpful video I’ve ever seen in my life 🙏🏼🙈🤣
Thank you brother. God bless.
You do a great job young man. You are easy to understand and you explain things in great detaii. You also look professional and dress nice for the video.
Great content. THank you!
The best explained video I have found on this subject. Congratulations! Subscribed
Maaaaan, such a great video. Im going to watch this one a couple of times. TY for putting this together. The earned vs unearned bit was gold. Also clarifying the PROGRESSIVE tax brackets was very helpful. I do have a question for capital gains tax…is it also progressive in that, the first $40,400 is taxed at 0% and only the amount over that is taxed at 15% …or is it 15% no matter what if your taxable income is over that $40,400?
Great information Sean! Thanks for sharing your great knowledge to us.
Great information! Thanks for sharing
I never thought the Progressive tax was really fair it stands to say the more you make the more taxes you owe, which wouldn’t that hinder someone from wanting to be successful and rich when they know they’re gonna have to pay way more money in taxes. I personally own a business and it’s frustrating.
True that. What I notice is people that make more money, don't care much about the taxes. Its the people that make very little that make lots noise from what I've seen as Tax preparer. Paying taxes made me more interested in learning about them. I've done taxes in 5 other states, for military, civilians & IRS free program (VITA). You can really save money when know more about taxes. Owning business is Hard work!! If you luv what you do its easier. I had several businesses, I worked 10 -12 hrs day. I later investigated Passive income. Work is very minimal depending on the entity. Passive income can require very little work & still get nice pay off. If interested, I know a few passive income. Reply back.
@@MacCurtisHolisticHealthTalk passive income? I prefer to WORK for my money
@@MacCurtisHolisticHealthTalk pretty obvious people that make less will make alot noise about taxes we're chosen between paying rent or eatting to survive how tf can we afford taxes we cant even eat?
Could you make a video on where we are supposed to go to pay taxes and also how often do you pay property taxes.
Thank you for sharing this video

Can you do a video of trust taxation and forms 1041, 541 and k-1s...? 🙏
Awesome video! I just subscribed. Can you please tell me what brand of white dress shirt you have on? It fits very nicely.
Do I need to report on settlement. I got paid by auto insurance company injuries ? Thank you
How do you calculuate your total income for the year?
I greatly appreciate all the information provided
My husband owned a business with his 2 brothers. For the last 2 years it seemed they had all the necessary documents they needed for all of us to file our taxes correctly. But just a month ago they can to the decision to hire my husband on. I called the IRS hoping to get some information but only reach and automated message that told me I could find the correct forms I need online. I’m not sure what forms he will need since their business is LLC and he owns part of the business but is also self-employed under that business. I hear of Schedule C and 1040. Would these be the correct forms?
great
Really very good explanation about taxes. Thanks very much
Damn after all these years. I’m 43 and I understand taxes more now than I ever did!
I am working from january 2023 as self employed , do i need to calculate and pay tax on april 2023?
Hi ! Could you suggest me, which video I should watch after this one as I'm beginners
Hi where are learning it. I’m also interested in tax programs
What does filing your taxes mean?
Do you do this physically or digitally?
I am a super beginner at taxes and this video was a bit helpful but I’m still ignorant towards a lot of things related to taxes
You can file your taxes digitally. For the most basic tax situations you can use a website like TurboTax
@@LYFEAccounting Thank you for replying!!
We pay taxes to ffund the goverment
Thx for the video. May I ask where your company is based out of? I could not find an address just mail contact. We’re outside the country needing to file taxes.
What if I filled for my LLC last year, but something unexpectedly happened and I had to put things on hold as far as selling anything, but I still continued to purchase merchandise for my business? How do I go about filling my taxes in this instance? Thanks for your time and services.
It sounds like you still have some expenses related to your business that should be filed. Not 100% sure of your question, but if you want some help reach out to us at lyfetaxes.com
How you find out how much tax you've paid or you're owed/owe?
I have a question
If your doing RUclips and you make money.
Does the governor coutn your taxes or do you have to caculate and send.
Also if you don’t have a bank account and you make money on RUclips where is it stored.
What am I doing at 14 years old watching a video on how to do your taxes??
(Great vid btw I can now do my taxes :D )
Im 100% new to learning this stuff, i just started my own business and figured the best way to start was to understand the money side and tax side of it first, I searched " taxes for dummies" because thats how i thought id have to learn it. But youve explained it damn good, there were a few times going through this video when i had to go to a different video that explains a certain term or algorithm, which was very few times. I did think it was odd that the chapter, "6 different types of income" was called that because it really only explains earned income, unearned and briefly goes into the subsets of those things like W2 income and the sale of assets and qualified dividends. This video did explain alot of things i didnt know, very well. And it was easy to stay caught up with what you were saying and how you were phrasing things. It helped tons and i will be watching more videos of yours on this topic.
Loving all the content!! So if I take money from my LLC and dump it into real estate I don't pay taxes on it?
It's not that simple, but real estate can wipe off (deduct) 20-50% of your taxable income through bonus depreciation. Does that make sense?
Gotcha thanks
Wish it were that easy. Realestate offers tons of tax benefits but the government never loses the game of taxes.
Hi, If I buy a house can I make tax deductions. as investor ?

I need to rewatch with a notepad.
Another state and federal tax is aquariums and zoos and museums
I know this probably isn’t the place but thinking about how taxes are done I think it would be better if the government takes a certain percentage of your income rather than doing a flat or doing brakets. For example lets say a fast food worker makes 1,000 dollars a week and a business man makes 10,000 dollars a week. Now if the government were to tax it by taking 1% out of each then both will be left with a take home income of 990 dollars for the fast food worker and 9,900 for the business man. But this isn’t including what the government needs.
To defeat your enemy, you must understand them better than you understand yourself.
We need thriving income
Bit lost so you said from 40k we pay alsmot 13 in tax and then you said the 27k is taxable?! What does that mean if tax been paid
My coworker resales flannels and he always writes off his cigarettes on his taxes as entertainment. I think that he's on a slippery slope with that one.
❤❤❤
God love you
👍
not sure if I heard this correctly ruclips.net/video/Cox8rLXYAGQ/видео.html, is it either a person can use the tax deduction "OR" tax credit. they cant use both?
👍🏽
I'm trying to connect with other brothers in the tax industry. I've been in the industry for about 5 yrs and I only work with women. Nothing wrong with that but I wouldn't mind having some brothers to talk to in this industry
There ought to be another category of "Unearned Income" - Shareholders and Real Estates
They shouldn't be lumped in with the more "Social services" related aspects of "unearned income" (Which many of these actually are earned income and safety nets)
Rich 1% of shareholders own 53% of all corporate stocks
Rich 9% of shareholders own 38% of all corporate stocks
Self made billionaires are rare or a myth as most of it is by pure nepotism and inheritance and are more a drain on an economy as the only time they put money into an economy is through further investment...which sucks more out of any Economy,
The real job creators are small local and medium businesses, which are increasingly struggling against corporations owned by these shareholders.
Their capital gains tax or what little taxes they pay needs to go back to FDR levels and beyond.
Pass more of those tax breaks to the small and medium business, emphasize more independent businesses (no shareholders or family operated)

Your doing a good service, but is this really Taxes 101and not an advanced class?!
Taxes do not pay for anything to do with the postal service. Just an fyi.
