Ignorance is bliss. I knew about 401k and IRA of course, but the rest blew me away. Your video is so informative and straight to the point without the blah,blah,blah. I definitely subscribed and liked.
Do you have a to be an investor to invest in Oil and Gas? Do you have video on how to invest in Oil and Gas or drop any links on how to do it? It would be greatly appreciated
God bless you for sharing this information.
Start a single member LLC, create an eBay account or account on another selling platform, sell some used stuff you find at garage sales, thrift stores, or junk you have around the house. Make sure you have a dedicated space in your home…spare bedroom, garage, basement, storage shed; then you can take business deductions for the space used for the business, a portion of your utility bills, milage on your vehicle (used for business purposes), equipment used for the business (computer, tablet, phone, monitors, printers, TV, subscription services for the business, etc…). With all the biz deductions, my biz runs at a loss, which help lower me and my wife’s taxable income.
Yeah, you are spot on. I used the same strategy. But, my CPA told me I could only for it for 3 to 4 years before the IRS starts to audit my business. So I show a small profit.
Yeah, technically after two years of a loss the IRS can deem your “business” a hobby and you can’t claim the losses anymore if you’re audited. Just a heads up
@@TravelingLifeStyleNow You might consider shopping for new CPA however the 8829 handles "rented" vs "owned" far different. BTW: LOL Audits after 3 or 4 years?? Completely laughable. But let me ask: So what?? Unless you are making stuff up? Who cares if you are audited? CPA? Over priced Bad information.
@@idaUnchained "Technically"? Going with this? Gee. Don't let Mitt Romney and his horse business find out. Won't the tax payers intent be more relevant than losses? How long before Twitter is declared a hobby? LOL. Don't listen to me. Likely you are far more knowledge of this vital area of code.
Great ideas!!! Say, in LLC ,where do you take the home office (8829 on Sch C) Actually, if you have a Sch C with 8829, what it the benefit of the LLC? Thanks!
Nice video, keep up the good work! Had to double check it wasn’t a 100k sub account I wasn’t aware of.
Thank you! It's a grind.

Thanks for sharing 🤲🏾❤️💪🏿
When you say oil and gas investments do you mean gas station purchase or something else?
Number 8. NICER Interdiction Living Trust Permission Ledger.
When investing in an oil or gas company does one just buy common stock on an exchange or are there more specific requirements?
It's not simply buying common stock. Rather, you're investing in something like a Master Limited Partnership. Yes, there are some very good tax benefits, but these can also be very tricky investments. When considering an investment, it's best to consider the RETURNS you'll make (or what you may lose) well before you weigh the tax implications. In the case of MLPs, you may lose your shirt, and you won't care whether there was a good tax benefit or not.
There is an income ratio also to invest in traditional roth ira
Does cooking oil count

I would like to know about oil and gas investment deductions. Do you have any videos ?
Great video & helpful. Tax deduction is good. But when buying a home too much deduction enable you to qualify for a mortgage because w2 might be too low to qualify for the home
Disclosure to this: Contributing the max to IRAs and 401ks are considered tax deductions, but they do not reduce your taxes $ for $. If your tax rate is 12%, then the contributions multiplied by your tax rate are the tax savings. Also, the solo 401k is only an option for self-employed individuals or S Corp owners. W-2 employees outside of an S Corp owner or Self-employed business owner do not get this benefit.
I think that's why people still have a business and pay themselves or put kids on payroll for doing chores in addition to working more tex deductions for business owners
Yep, I have a business and still paying a high amount of taxes, thought a rental property would help this year, since I did not owe any taxes last year. So not sure how long I have to own the rental until it helps with lowering my taxes.
Very interesting video. I'll be looking into some of your others.
$69,000 is an overreach for 99.9% of people. Also, 401k’s have limited investment options and higher fees. I would keep some in a taxable account. Also, 401k’s are taxable when withdrawn and will cause 85% of ss income to be taxable
I have Roth IRA investing account for the retirement!
Good work, 1 thing to mention is that if you are 50 or over, you can also do $7500 catch up contributions on your 401k for year 2023.

For investing in Oil and gas, did you mean to invest in oil and gas stocks and you get a tax deduction or having your own oil and gas company?
Great info
Thank you!
Good 💯 info

Hey when one steels. Takes to believe not aware
#8 Could be a First-home buyer savings account in states like Michigan, up to 5,000 tax-deductible
IRA does not stand for Individual Retirement Account. It’s Individual Retirement Arrangement
Side note, you need earned income if you want to contribute to an Ira or Roth.

Thank you for video very formative. How to invest in oil and gas?
As a cpa this video was even helpful for me! Keep up the good work
Appreciate it, Jeremy!
Can you go into more detail on the Oil and Gas Companies? Is this like stocks or something else?
The example referenced in the video is not related to public stocks, but are instead related private investment opportunities where you can directly invest capital into an oil & gas company.
@@mycpacoach cool, thank you for explaining that
@@mycpacoachCould you please explain how to do this? I liked your video and subscribed as well. Thanks in advance 🙏
@@mycpacoachHow can an avg person do that?
@@user-yf4yz7zj7d we cant lol
The investment you choose isn't right or wrong, just depends on the kind of business person you are or simply the kind of person you are. However, the end game is investing money long term creates wealth every time. Just pick what you like and understand, invest and it will pay off. A lifetime of investing for 5 mil is not hard to accrue.
Now this man right here knows what he’s talking about. I mean he’s giving us the business
1. IRA contributions have to be earned income even for a child. So you can't just open up the account and fund it unless you're able to prove the child has earned it (e.g., babysitting, lemonade stand, etc. )
2. You can't deduct contributions to your child's IRA on your taxes which is why it's recommended to open a Roth IRA since there's no upfront tax advantages to be had for opening up a Traditional IRA.
Hi regarding oil and gas,do i need to be an investor?owner or a consumer? Pls enlighten me bec it’s my first time to hear these. Thank you
When you say Oil & Gas, do you mean Oil & Gas stock investments or private companies?
Private companies
That’s really interesting considering the fact that a CPA doesn’t usually know all this kind of stuff, it’s usually a EA
I'm not sure when CPAs got the reputation that they didn't know tax planning. The designation requires much more experience, education, testing, etc. than the EA.
@@mycpacoach LOL. So you engage on generally using EA vs CPA? Okay. I would go for results but your channel.
Yeah you’re 100% backwards here. I’m a CPA, and I can tell you based on many hundreds of folks I’ve worked with over the years that CPAs>EAs almost always. Not 100% of the time, but almost. The CPA exam is significantly harder than the EA test and has significant education and experience requirements. That said, there are certainly exceptions and I’ve known a few people who simply didn’t get their CPA license because they worked for a firm for many years that didn’t require or care if they had it… and then they just got too far into their career to bother. So they got the EA just so they had some sort of designation, but were in fact a great tax professional and better than some licensed CPAs I knew. On the flip side, I can’t even count the amount of times I’ve met new clients who used an EA for a prior year tax return where there was something over the head of the EA on their tax return that got botched and we had to amend. Above all else, when you hire a CPA or EA… just make sure you’re hiring the right fit for your needs. Don’t buy a Ferrari if you only need a Camry.
@@CraigK5thGen I've seen both and worked with both. The most arrogant and vicious are CPA. Ken Krantz in Fountain Valley was the first CPA to steal from me. I took course to learn from H&R block the most basic so I could survive being around these jerks. In fairness, the average working guy is unwilling to pay for services and build a better result overtime. The best EA in the business was James Harnsberger in San Diego. Other EAs (at least in CA) are usually former IRS employees. Best wishes for your season.
Enrolled Agents (EAs) are federally-licensed tax practitioners who may represent taxpayers before the IRS when it comes to collections, audits and appeals. As authorized by the Department of Treasury’s Circular 230 regulations, EAs are granted unlimited practice rights to represent taxpayers before IRS and are authorized to advise, represent, and prepare tax returns for individuals, partnerships, corporations, estates, trusts, and any entities with tax-reporting requirements. Enrolled agents are the only federally-licensed tax practitioners who specialize in taxation and have unlimited rights to represent taxpayers before the IRS. The enrolled agent profession dates back to 1884 when, after questionable claims had been presented for Civil War losses, Congress acted to regulate persons who represented citizens in their dealings with the U.S. Treasury Department. Enrolled agents’ expertise in the continually changing field of taxation enables them to effectively represent taxpayers at all administrative levels within the IRS.
Gym membership with HSA? WHAT!? I didn’t know that. I’ve been paying with after-tax dollars! What the heck!?
A lot of those were the tried-and-true basics. Was hoping for some investments that were not taxable like VMSXX/Vanguard Municipal Money Market Fund; VWALX/Vanguard High-Yield Tax-Exempt Fund Admiral Shares
This video focuses on tax deductible investments. I did a separate video for “tax free investments”. You can view here: th-cam.com/video/sr1FkwhczIQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=PO4m7zVDOz1A4rp1
@@mycpacoachThanks much for the follow up and letting me know. I'll check out that video and some more of yours.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! your information just helped me on somethings in my own business
You are very welcome. There is much more valuable content on our channel, especially if you own a business.
build wealth
I'm only halfway through the video and I have never been more excited about taxes in my life😂.
I understand deferring taxing by utilizing tax deferred accounts. However, I completely disagree with the government telling me/controlling my money until 59.5yrs and then taxing me on it. What if you want to retire at 45 or 50?
I understand this view. Some of the later examples in the video are great alternatives. I always tell my clients to determine their goals first, and then we’ll pick the best ways to package everything to reduce their taxes. With a good plan, you can do both - invest for early retirement (45-60) while putting money aside for a later retirement (60+).
@@mycpacoachI think it is important to revisit your goals frequently. Mine changed and at 50 I wish I had invested more outside of the 401k and Roth. Having nearly 8 figures in my locked up accounts is driving me crazy. I could walk away with the 300k I have in my taxed accounts. I only need 35k per year to travel and not work.
I would say balance is the key. If you are disciplined you can retire much sooner than 59.5. Make sure to be wise in your taxed accounts. Taxes will get us all sooner or later. If I could change it I would go back and invest just 5% in a 401k and pile my cash into taxed accounts.
You can take out the contributions from your Roth at any time without tax or penalty. If you do a conversion (like from a 401k) into Roth you pay taxes on the amount converted. And then 5 years later you can start taking out the converted dollars without tax or penalty. (Separate 5 year clock for each conversion.)
But overall I am with you. My biggest regret in 2008 was that I had very little in after-tax accounts compared to my tax advantaged accounts. I've since corrected that.
A lot of people are in for a rude surprise when they're 45-55. I moved my money from a retirement account to a taxable account so I can retire before 59.5, instead of being able to retire, but needing to wait until my money isn't held hostage anymore.
Then don't utilize tax deferred accounts. It's supposed to be a benefit for those who retire at retirement age. Not for those who stops working before that.
Any Oil and Gas investment recommendations?
Thanks for all the info, but why is your camera so shaky?
Never noticed the shakiness until today, lol. Thanks - I just changed my settings going forward.
I am only 30 years old this year, and I have $10k in additional retirement accounts in addition to somewhat less than $40k in my personal 401(k). My spouse, who is not employed at the moment, has approximately $41,000 in retirement savings. Right now, I make over $63k annually. I contribute just 5% of my income to my 401(k) through the corporate match, and the remaining 10% is divided between an HSA and an ROTH IRA.
Great video. Can you make a video on how to reinvest RMDs from your traditional IRA accounts. I know taking distributions from your IRAs first is prudent, but no one talks about what to do with the RMDs that people have to take once they reach 73 yrs of age, if they are needed right away.
5,6 and 7 are new to me!
Wait you didn't explain #7 like at all. Are you saying I can buy some XOM stock (An Oil And Gas Company Investment) and DEPRECIATE IT ?? Or like, Actual Oil and Gas Extraction / Processing / Transportation / Storage / Utilization business investments? These are two VERY Different things. It'd be nice to know reasonable bare minimums for making these types of investments ie: You're probably not going to be able to buy a house for less than $300,000, So unless you have more than $300,000, You're probably not going to be depreciating real estate on your taxes any time soon. But You can buy some Realty Income stock for $57. Are we talking a $103 investment strategy here or a $16,500,000 investment strategy here?
Oil&gas and rental investment deductions including those from stocks ?
From my understanding, one cannot do deductions for IRA if your income is over a certain level. Is this correct?
True. There is a threshold like most times
This applies if you are covered by an employer plan.
