Reviews
"I'm using this book mainly to reduce my taxes since I have a relatively high income with high income taxes and this book seems to contain the most detail and various ways I can deduct my taxes. The getting started chapter goes over business types (service, retail, manufacturing), business success info and advice, business location (mall, home, rural, industrial, zoning), financing (business loan types, grants, raising capital), legal structures (sole proprietor, LLC, etc. ), I just found out he wrote a different book that only covers tax deductions - had I known this, I would have bought that book. There are so many deductions that are explained, I'm glad that I bought this book so that I don't have to hire someone to tell me and do my taxes for me. The home business chapter is my second favorite since it also has tax-specific advice about home business. This is a great book for people who already have a pretty solid traditional small business and hope to improve upon it by expanding their business through expanding sales and hiring employees. Taxes are a headache, reading this book is a headache - but that is mostly because taxes are a complicated issue for most laypeople trying to start a business."
"I probably should write this review after I've finished reading it."
"Anyone starting a small business could really use this!"
"Phenomenal book!"
"Great information for a beginner."
"this book helped me review many things im going through my accounting class and helped me learn about many things more to be one step ahead, i would really recomend this book."
"Has a lot of detail and a well structured table of contents to make searching for a particular topic a breeze."
"I had a copy of this book from the 1970's and loved it to pieces."

"I have moderately complex returns but always do them myself with the assistance of a computerized tax preparation program: I believe that I better understand tax law and rules by doing my own returns, although the experience is often very trying. I find it particularly helpful in determining the eligibility and legality of deductions and depreciation, as the IRS rules can be particularly bewildering in those areas sometimes."
"I have been purchasing the annual J.K.Lasser's guides for many years and I always find them very helpful to clarify issues ans I prepare our tax returns."
"Everyone should have an annual copy to do taxes !"
"I don't read it cover to cover, but I do review areas that affect me as my life and finances change."
"Been using this publication for a very long time."
"i do not like it on kindle, had to order the book."
