Year End Tax Planning
If you didn't attend, you missed out on a lot of helpful hints for both this year's year end and next year's credit's. Mark and Ron Schneider went over a range of all the new tax laws that are or will be implemented. Some of the main highlighted areas were:
*Home Buyers Credit
*Sales Tax Deduction on new vehicles
*Converting and IRA to a Roth IRA
*Investments
*Retirement Plans
*Withholding
*Write-offs
*Minimum Tax
*Business Taxes
*Year End Planning Tips
And if none of the above topics pertained to you, you would have least been entertained by Ron Schneider's storytelling and his rendition of Adrian Rogier and his emergency room visits.
