To Everyone: If you so desire to follow the advice of any poster in this thread, PLEASE get a lawyer first. To be honest, there isn't that many people here on this forum that actually make money, so it's easy to point out all of these loopholes when ...

I don't want to pay tax

Dude. Quit being a poser -- like you're some cool law breaking rebel who has all the secrets on how to thwart Uncle Sam. The IRS is much smarter than you -- they hire guys that see all of this crap. They'd take you to court and take all ...
