Hey Dad, Could You Tell Me Something That Seems Illegal, But Isn't?

Absolutely! I rent out our home in Aspen for $1,000 a day for two weeks in the winter. I don't have to document any of it to the IRS. Is this some tax loophole that only the rich know about?

Nope. It's All About the Tax Code!

Taking advantage of Section 280A of the U.S. Tax Code. Because I rent out the place to my business partners, it's considered a business expense. But I turn around and write off the $14,000 on my tax return. The double dip.

You're Learning, Son!

And where did you learn this from? I just follow Social Cat. Makes complex finance seem easy.
