Tax Day Celebration
Yesterday marked that big day of the year – our final deadline to recon with Uncle Sam.
For some tax time is a dreaded time of year, while for others, it’s a time of celebration because Uncle Sam owes them.
I don’t know about you, but I didn’t have any munee coming my way.
In fact, I owed Uncle Sam a pretty big chunk-o-change this year, and that’s cause for some serious celebration.
I know – I know.
You’re thinking to yourself, “Wait a minute Kev, you owed munee, and you think that’s reason for celebration”?
Seems odd, doesn’t it.
So let me explain.
I’m always amazed when I hear business owners say they don’t want to grow their business too much, because they don’t wanna pay too many taxes.
I’m thinking to myself, “Huh”?
That’s kind of like saying you don’t wanna eat, cause you’ll just get hungry again.
Sure – the more you make, the more taxes you pay.
But…
As business owners, you and I get tax advantages that the “Average Joe” never gets.
That means that we get the luxury of having our business pay for much of our lifestyle with “pre-tax munee”.
Now, I’m certainly not an accountant, so I won’t even try to give you financial advice, but I will tell you one thing.
Far too many business owners and entrepreneurs have what’s known as a “poverty mindset”.
I realize this might sound a little harsh, but it’s the truth.
In order to have the kind of lifestyle you want and deserve, you’ve got to believe that having a LOT of munee is a good thing.
Because the fact is, being broke never helped anyone.
It won’t help you.
It won’t help your family.
And it won’t help anyone else.
I know that some will read these comments and say I’m being materialistic, yet they would be wrong.
If I was materialistic, I’d be fuming mad about having to pay Uncle Sam his due.
And that ain’t the case at all.
In fact, I’m gonna be back tomorrow with something special for you, and you won’t want to miss it.
Until then – congratulations for making it through another April 15th.
Dedicated to your success,
Kevin Thompson
