January eBook of the Month:
Lower Taxes in 7 Easy Steps
by Attorney Stephen Fishman
Nolo, 2006
Many personal finance books are full of hype, promising a radical reduction in taxes (or no taxes at all). Unfortunately, they often tout obscure tax strategies that apply to only a handful of people -- or doubtful schemes that could bring on the IRS. Lower Taxes in 7 Easy Steps is a different kind of book, providing insights and tactics that can reduce taxes.
Clearly and concisely, it explains the seven most valuable rules of tax planning:
1. Boost tax-free income
2. Get a lower tax rate
3. Defer paying taxes
4. Make the most of deductions
5. Take advantage of exemptions
6. Identify and use tax credits
7. Shift income to other taxpayers
Each rule is outlined with plenty of ideas, strategies and real-life examples that can help minimize the pain of April 15.
