Taxes and Laptops
March 28th, 2006
Now I remember, I was also trying to figure out what I want to do with my tax return. Part of me wants to do the responsible thing and use it to pay off my debt faster or to stick it into my somewhat sad looking savings account, but part of me wants to blow it on something fun like a new laptop or an HDTV or a Mac Mini or something like that.
I was also struck by the thought of registering 2 Bit Hacker as a business with the state, and start actively pushing my consulting a bit more. I think I’ve talked about that in my weblog before. But the thought occurred to me that a new laptop could then be considered a business expense. It would also be a good way of separating out any income I get from doing SimPro maintenance work.
