Looks like starting this year, I'll be searching for an accountant. I've always done my own taxes. Was always fairly easy, since I never itemized. Was always fine being satisfied with the outcome by taking my Child Tax Credits (3), and using the Tax Table. Well, being they all are still addressed at my home residences, with one in college, one disabled, and one still a Sr. in HS, there's probably "things" out there in tax world I can benefit from, but don't know about. Add in the 1099's with Dividends, Cap Gains/Losses, etc... and it's out of my league, as I'm not willing to spend my life keeping up on changes of codes, etc... WHY don't reputable accountants advertise on TV, like the Attorneys do ?  I mean, a slogan like, "We will find you every loophole" would be enough to sell me on their particular firm. LOL Guess I gotta see what the word on the street is, and so some sleuthing.  |

He added many interesting outdoor posts especially in the muzzleloading & shooting arena not to mention some mighty fine photography work too boot!!  Dutch if u pm me his email I will reach out to Dave. I know you said you were unsuccessful but I'll give a fellow CPA a shot! I'm sure Dave wouldn't mind. |

I am glad to hear Dave is still kicking around somewhere. I thought he would surely be back here by now if all was well with him. Maybe Loggy can get him to at least check in.

Until then, I've heard good things about shell corporations and loans. I won't charge anything for that advice. This is what friends are for.

I wish I could, but people put emails in here and expect confidentiality. I have to honor that. |

I understand/respect that. Once had it plus Dave's last name & cell....but can no longer find. Guess the fact he doesn't reply to your email says it all anyway.

If your're referring to a CPA........the AICPA & State regulatory Boards have pretty strict rules for the profession in connection with advertising. |

How stupid. 60-70 yr old grown men, whining, crying, and taking their ball and going home, over posts on a friggin message board. LOL. I mean really ? You folks are ok. But you're nothing but a screenname and an "e-person" to me personally. If a topic knocks you in the nuts that bad, simply avoid it. LOL Apparently all of the fellas from the northern border got "run off" too. Haha! Maybe all of the "Guests" can replace them one day ? .... OH WAIT !!! |

And this happened one time, a good while ago, and it still sticks in your crawl?
This is very different than me giving a member another members email.
There have been times when bullies on here have taken over and bullied other members. I no longer suffer bullies. They can find a new home. I had several on here, and they are gone. They didn't care for being corrected, and they took their balls and went home.
I honestly don't need the stress of dealing with bullies, who SHOULD know how to treat others, but refuse to.
End of story

Huh ?  If I send a PM to somebody, I certainly don't expect it to be broadcast to anybody else for any reason at all. It's a "Private" Message, not a "Public" Message ? |

A message Boards PM's purpose is primarily for "member to member" messaging outside public board posts. Nothing more or nothing less. When sending personal emails, message board PM's, FB messages etc....if you have any concerns WHATSOEVER of it be shared outside of recipient......INCLUDE A CONFIDENTIALITY CLAUSE!!! Albeit why most attorney's use such in their communique. |

Huh ? Stick a clause in every PM, in HOPES that an Admin doesn't share it on a piddly internet message board ? Or else what ? Sue Admin that shared it ? I mean, proper decorum is that no "Private" messages are shared with anybody they aren't intended for. I doubt a confidentiality clause is needed, or would even be cared about. LOL |
