[@John2r1]

And to think there are mcdonalds workers demanding 15 dollars an hour which moves them from paying 10 to 12% taxes to paying 22%of their income in taxes. And I bet none of them are educated enough to take advantage of tax deductibles.

[@two7plumbing]

@@John2r1 that’s not exactly how tax brackets work. You only pay the higher percentage on the remainder of income after the lower tax bracket. It’s a tiered/stepping stone bracket system, not a “all in on this bracket” type system.

[@John2r1]

@@two7plumbing thing is if you don't have any profits there's nothing to be to pay taxes on. You can't get 22% tax from 0% income. Which is what profit is when you own a business. If you don't take an actual paycheck and instead take equality out and use all company assets to run your company. Which only requires you to be able to say you use the asset to go to meeting's or whatever events required to run your company. Then you don't technically own anything your using and you don't have a taxable income as an individual. Your company still has to pay corporate taxes but you pass those cost on to the price of the product your company makes. Ergo your not paying taxes out of your own pocket. It's the same with debts due to buying property if you buy a house then rent that house out. Your not paying your money to the bank your taking money from someone else to pay the bank. All extra money is profit to most people. But its really an asset to invest. So if on paper your not taking a paycheck and you don't personally own anything as an individual your not personally paying taxes. The US Tax code treats the Company and the Individual who owns it as separate entities. People like Donald Trump don't directly own anything their companies own it. They just use company assets. That's how the rich personally get around taxes while their companies pass the tax on to consumers. It cost Nike about 20¢ an hour to produce their shoes in their Vietnamese factories. The cost to the consumer here in the US per pair of shoes is between 25 to over 150 dollars depending on the shoes. The reason why taxes . It's a dog eat dog world. And the rich figured out how to get around the system.

[@two7plumbing]

@@John2r1 I agree completely. My comment was simply aiming to clear up the tax bracket situation as you seemed to be suggesting that McDonald employees who earn a higher wage are not in a better situation due to the higher tax percentage they’ll have to pay.

As a CPA who specializes in tax this video triggered me. If you try half of these the IRS will come looking for you. Rich people don’t pay as much in tax as regular people because of safe harbor rules. The US doesn’t care where you make your money, there’s a worldwide tax and if you denounce your citizenship you have to pay taxes on everything you have before they let you leave. Not to mention estates, gifts, and trusts are taxed separately from federal income tax. Half of these “methods” are subject to AGI limitations. And the other half have different tax rules than GAAP rules.

Major caveat to a couple of these…. If you’re a US citizen you’re taxed globally. You could spend ~30 days in 12 different countries and Uncle Sam is still coming for their taxes. You can renounce your citizenship but there’s definitely an exit tax on that. This is a lot more complicated than the video implies as well as a couple other things. With that being said, it’s correct in most ways.

I have to disagree with you on one thing in this video. When it comes to maxing out contributions to a retirement account, you did not mention if it's a pre-taxed contributions or after tax contributions. I contribute to both a pre-taxed and Roth retirement accounts. As you already know, no one pays taxes with a pre-taxed retirement account and the money grows tax free. However, the money is taxed as ordinary income in retirement. With a Roth retirement account, the tax on the contributions are paid up front but the money grows tax free and is also withdrawn tax free in retirement. Both of my retirement accounts are well managed by me. Other than that, this video is very informative and shows how people can use the tax system to their advantage regardless of their wealth level.

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

Middle class has it the hardest. I knew plenty of broke friends who NEVER paid their taxes because the government would get almost nothing out of them anyway. Then I have friends who make six-figures and have to give over 10k each year in taxes. Only the absolute wealthiest or poorest avoid paying taxes. I think the actual stat is the top 1% pay for 50% of the taxes or something crazy like that

[@mauricio9564]

Its closer to 30%-40% which is proportional to their share of national wealth.

[@robertryan627]

It’s more and has nothing to do with national wealth whatever that is.

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

@@mauricio9564 I am not sure what you mean by "Share of wealth" because that implies the money was just donated to them which it was not. They earned the money by selling products or services that people willingly wanted to buy. No matter how you look at it, the government taking 50% of the money you earned is messed up. It does not even go back to the people who bought the products. It just goes straight to government who spends it on other things that may not even benefit most people.

Yeah, an example is rich people using borrowed money to live on rather than having a taxable income. I looked into this (Australia) and the wording on the ATO web site was that borrowings should be used to directly benefit the company so personal expenditure does not qualify.

[@schoolofrandomthings]

Yes, I think this is why so many people in the US think that the rich don't pay their fair share. On average the rich pay 27% in taxes while the working poor pay 4%. But because taxes are confusing and most don't understand how it works, plus it doesn't help when you hear Warren Buffett make comments about he pays less in taxes than his secretary. All this becomes very confusing and it's no wonder why Americans are angry towards the rich. This is why financial education and understanding taxes should be taught in high schools.

Couple clarifications plz 1.Taking bank loan does not waive taxes. You pay back bank loans with tax paid money. Loan is not an expense. 2. You do not have to reinvest money to save taxes. You have to pay corporate taxes on profit and then can reinvest it. However, tax paid income could be kept as cash asset in a corporation. You pay personal taxes only when you pay yourself salary or dividend.
