On the End of the Podcast Peer Awards

Yes, it is true. The Podcast Peer Awards has come to an end. I’m separating my podcasting posts from my financial/business/tech posts now, staying true to the theme running on taylormarek.com. You will find this article, as well as any podcasting article over at my premium site, http://www.podcastinsiders.com

2009 Tax Deduction Tip for Businesses

With 2009 comes another year, and with a new year comes taxes. Time for all business owners to pull out their books and tally up everything. But before you send it into the Fed, here is a tip.

Have you checked all your expenses? If you haven’t already, sit down with your accountant to see if there are any hidden expenses that could be reported. Mileage? Business lunch meeting? Equipment depreciation?

I was planning on linking to an article from CNN Money, and with it would have come more tips, but something just felt wrong when I was reading over it. Reading the article felt like it was “hiding” something or cheating on taxes, and with you small business owners in mind, it didn’t feel right posting it.

Take this tip to heart. It doesn’t hurt to double or triple check your expenses.

But I thought this stimulus package was supposed to help!

Honestly, I’m not trying to make this into a political blog, but this is just too funny to notice.

Browsing Reuters, I ran across this article: http://www.reuters.com/article/businessNews/idUSTRE51K0A920090221?feedType=RSS&feedName=businessNews&rpc=23&sp=true

I thought this stimulus package was supposed to pull us out of this “recession” and bring everything back to normal? Was I wrong in thinking this? Did we do something worse?

Renowned investor George Soros said on Friday the world financial system has effectively disintegrated, adding that there is yet no prospect of a near-term resolution to the crisis.

Yup, it seems we killed the market. We shall start noticing lines for food soon…

Honestly people, come on. I was being sarcastic when I made the past couple questions/comments and for good reason. We are in this mess because you are fooling around in the economy. Get your fat greedy fingers out of it and let it fix itself!

Soros said the turbulence is actually more severe than during the Great Depression, comparing the current situation to the demise of the Soviet Union.

Oh, don’t even get me started on that path. I’ll let my tweets say it all (be sure to read these in order):
