Customer Rating: 
Summary: Great book for a beginner
Comment: I own a company and needed to learn about the basics of tax reduction. I found this book to be useful in just the basics. Because it concentrated on many topics, I believe it wasn't able to focus on many items that would have been useful to me. However, it was well written and easy to read, and I give it five stars because it gave me many broad questions to ask my tax consultant.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Less than what I expected
Comment: I thought that this book would have tons of lists of tips and give lots of legal, but perhaps edgey advice, but it fell short. I didn't find it easy to read through, I didn't find lots of lists and tips, I like books like this to make it easier.I am sure the advice is sound, but what I found here didn't seem to live up to what the cover implied.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Where are the S-Corps?
Comment: I found this book a bit loose, and am looking for a more thorough description of financial management practices unique to an S-Corp. I have been looking for a definitive description of S-Corp accounting practices and concrete tax saving advice. My S-Corp. started last April, from a 3-month old sole proprietorship with all the requisite Federal and State designations. If anyone knows of a book particular to S-Corps, it would be much appreciated. In conclusion, I have found this book helpful, yet not as specific or thorough as I had hoped.
Customer Rating:
Summary: An understandable book on reducing business taxes
Comment: Full of good ideas conveyed with a clear writing style, this book gives readers lots of good, concrete examples of how different businesses can reduce their tax burden. I was looking to create a new company and wanted to figure out which type of company was right for me (partnership, LLC, Chapter S, or C Corp). By following the examples in the book, I was able to zero in on the right organization for my consulting business. I have no doubt that when it is all said and done, I will have saved thousands of dollars by reading this excellent book.
