This. To him, under the scenario of you being considered an independent contractor, he pays none of your taxes. The responsibility is on you to take care of both sides (the employee AND the employer) of your FICA taxes. You'll have to pay your taxes come next April (or you'll handle things quarterly). Just budget them out as the money comes in, so you don't overspend. You're going to owe at the end of the year, but if you've accounted for it there's no big deal.

foo is under the right path with expensing EVERYTHING. Track your mileage, with a log-book and photos of your odometer at year start and year end. It sounds tedious, but it's worth the two seconds.

Consult a CPA-friend, though.

CPA is never a 'friend'. they're merely another tax to pay into an already illegal grand larceny scheme

Aye, figured out the whole tax deal, I'd have to file a 1099 with this guy just as I had last year. He's either very new to taxes and thought it was literally tax free or he's just saying it to attract people.

lol

When I say CPA-friend, I literally mean a friend who is a CPA and will give you pro-bono advice.

Didn't think CPA-friend was complicated.

Replay from Sunday but there are quite a few MILFs performing or parenting this year

I officially got the job today and I am done landscaping for the rest of my fucking life.

The next time I touch a shovel I want it to be when I'm doing work on my own home in 10 years

Nah, just liquor store work, but it's more than minimum wage and it's not landscaping so I'm counting it as a win.

I was disqualified from working as a phlebotomist at the 2 places I applied because I'd been a donator with one of them within 6 months of applying. Some dumb confidentiality rule they had. I'm definitely eyeing applying there in 4 more months

after working off an done in various capacities for a greenhouse/nursery for the last twenty years, with some landscaping gigs thrown in for good measure, one of the absolute best things about owning my first home for the last three years has been watching the landscaping take form. house is on the market now, and landscaping is in perfect form. even to the point of lots of things in flower right now, ready for the open house on saturday.
