    Free Accounting Software: If you need software, use these guys

    NOTABLE! 
    I actually like Xero a lot better than QBO. More intuitive, better interface, and the integrations seem to be a lot smoother. They seem to be the "tech"ier younger brother of QBO. There's also some cool things in the works for the next couple years which will make a lot of accounting aspects...

    Free Accounting Software: If you need software, use these guys

    NOTABLE! 
    Not specifically, but I also haven't looked hard. None of my current clients have a heavy enough presence on eBay to make it worth it. We just import transactions or do a direct feed from Paypal.

    Free Accounting Software: If you need software, use these guys

    NOTABLE! 
    There are programs that integrate with Amazon and bookkeeping software. Examples: Inventory Labs, Fetcher, A2X - it depends on the functionality you're looking for.

    Free Accounting Software: If you need software, use these guys

    NOTABLE! 
    This is something even we accountants struggle with. We're great at doing accounting, bad at billing and collections. I've started setting my clients up on monthly recurring charges instead of invoicing. They provide billing info up front, they agree to automatically get charged every month, I...

    To be (a dick) or not to be (a dick)

    I think I'm a little more vindictive. Right now they think you're naive, or worse, stupid (since you played that part on the phone). I would register their trademark. Then I would sell it to them for just the cost of filing, and not a penny more. It shows you know how to play the game, but...

    What does this new tax bill mean for us Americans?

    TAXES | REGS 
    They can and often are (think Bush era taxcuts, 179 deduction, bonus depreciation, etc). It just makes it frustrating to plan when they don't make things permanent.

    What does this new tax bill mean for us Americans?

    TAXES | REGS 
    Based on my reading so far, no matter what Trump says, this tax bill will benefit him bigly. The benefits for us smaller businesses is yet to be determined. There is some complicated math with the passthrough business deduction and its limitation to a percentage of wages. I don't see anyone's...

    I won 30k. What to do?

    +1. Plus, I didn't think this was a forum where we actively encourage tax fraud.

    What does this new tax bill mean for us Americans?

    TAXES | REGS 
    There are quite a few pros and cons that we're still reading through in the accounting world. One thing I find interesting: the corporate changes are written as permanent, the individual changes all expire.

    Thoughts on this rental I own

    Sounds like it isn't his primary residence. Under current law, I'd be careful dispatching tax advice such as this.

    Just moved: Register my LLC with California?

    I just provide the information. Since you aren't my client, what you choose to do (or not do) with that information is ultimately a business decision on your end, taking into account the amount of risk you are comfortable with.

    Just moved: Register my LLC with California?

    And even if you apply in IL, if the LLC is commercially domiciled in CA you still need to register in CA. Commercially domiciled includes directing the operations of your company.

    Getting a mailing address in the USA

    This is wading into an international realm that is not my area of expertise. However, I can't see how registering an entity and paying for a registered agent would be substantially cheaper than what you're doing now. I also wouldn't register an entity until you were absolutely sure you were...

    Since my father went bankrupt, finding answers to his loss became my life mission

    Feedback: I don't understand the product. You say "New Wealth Formula" a lot, but I don't know if that's the formula for building a business, or for trading stocks, or for living life - I'm not going to give you my email if I don't know what you're actually "selling" (I put selling in quotes...

    Wait for the reconciliation process. The end result (if any) may be completely different than either of the two passed bills.

    Do you work for your 401k or does your 401k work for you?

    Why? Given the choice at the end of the year of giving more money to the government, or keeping it for myself, I will keep it for myself every time. I'll get old and use it eventually - if I give it to the government I may never get it back.

    Amazon headed for banking?

    I think Amazon has already done the most profitable part for themselves. They lend money to sellers so they can sell product faster, and pay Amazon more fees. The interest they get is almost negligible compared to the fees they bring in. As @JScott said, I can't see them really wanting to add...
