In this episode, host Danielle Hayden, CPA and founder of Kickstart Accounting, Inc., is here to guide you through the gift-giving process in a way that's simple, stress-free, and keeps you tax-compliant.

Whether you're planning something small or looking to go big, this episode will help you gift confidently and compliantly, all while making your team and clients feel truly valued.

Make Payroll Gifts Meaningful: Create special moments around payroll-based gifts with personalized communication or gross-up amounts to cover taxes. Document for Deductions: Keep detailed records of all business gifts, including cost, recipient, and purpose, to ensure tax compliance.

More on Rabbi Yehudah ben Berkoka's position, with the property being established as an inheritance vs. as a gift. But what is the real difference? Why would it be preferable to inherit, as compared to receive a gift? For starters, the heirs need to support the widow of the benefactor, which is not the case for the recipients of gifts. Also, a new mishnah! What happens when a person really does give his property away and his rightful heirs get nothing? The majority view frowns upon such a decision, though it would take effect. Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel explains that there are circumstances, say, with an heir who is not behaving well, where circumventing the inheritance laws would be considered the right move. The Gemara provides a story that illustrates what the rabbis of the majority view think of Rabban Shimon ben Gamliel's caveat.

Bible reading: 1 Chronicles 29:1-20 (NIVUK) Gifts for building the temple 29 Then King David said to the whole assembly: ‘My son Solomon, the one whom God has chosen, is young and inexperienced. The task is great, because this palatial structure is not for man but for the Lord God. 2 With all my resources I have provided for the temple of my God – gold for the gold work, silver for the silver, bronze for the bronze, iron for the iron and wood for the wood, as well as onyx for the settings, turquoise, stones of various colours, and all kinds of fine stone and marble – all of these in large quantities. 3 Besides, in my devotion to the temple of my God I now give my personal treasures of gold and silver for the temple of my God, over and above everything I have provided for this holy temple: 4 three thousand talents of gold (gold of Ophir) and seven thousand talents of refined silver, for the overlaying of the walls of the buildings, 5 for the gold work and the silver work, and for all the work to be done by the craftsmen. Now, who is willing to consecrate themselves to the Lord today?' 6 Then the leaders of families, the officers of the tribes of Israel, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, and the officials in charge of the king's work gave willingly. 7 They gave towards the work on the temple of God five thousand talents and ten thousand darics of gold, ten thousand talents of silver, eighteen thousand talents of bronze and a hundred thousand talents of iron. 8 Anyone who had precious stones gave them to the treasury of the temple of the Lord in the custody of Jehiel the Gershonite. 9 The people rejoiced at the willing response of their leaders, for they had given freely and wholeheartedly to the Lord. David the king also rejoiced greatly. David's prayer 10 David praised the Lord in the presence of the whole assembly, saying, ‘Praise be to you, Lord, the God of our father Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. 11 Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendour, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, Lord, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all. 12 Wealth and honour come from you; you are the ruler of all things. In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all. 13 Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name. 14 ‘But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand. 15 We are foreigners and strangers in your sight, as were all our ancestors. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope. 16 Lord our God, all this abundance that we have provided for building you a temple for your Holy Name comes from your hand, and all of it belongs to you. 17 I know, my God, that you test the heart and are pleased with integrity. All these things I have given willingly and with honest intent. And now I have seen with joy how willingly your people who are here have given to you. 18 Lord, the God of our fathers Abraham, Isaac and Israel, keep these desires and thoughts in the hearts of your people for ever, and keep their hearts loyal to you. 19 And give my son Solomon the wholehearted devotion to keep your commands, statutes and decrees and to do everything to build the palatial structure for which I have provided.' 20 Then David said to the whole assembly, ‘Praise the Lord your God.' So they all praised the Lord, the God of their fathers; they bowed down, prostrating themselves before the Lord and the king.

Giving GiftsGiving gifts or purchasing things for your mentee is one of the more complicated topics you will face as a mentor. You want to be able to show your care and affection for your mentee through giving gifts, but so often they can become distractions in your mentoring relationship. Let me be the first to say that this is a gray topic. It is not black and white. We are just giving you our perspective that we gained through years of mentoring. We never want our mentee or their family to:See us as an ATMTo hang out with us to get somethingConfuse our mentee when we don't give them everything they wantThis is especially difficult when the gifts you want to purchase are considered necessary items. We have had mentees who:Needed new shoesNeeded a bedNeeded groceriesWhen needs like this pop up, we suggest you use your connections to a non-profit organization or a church to partner with your mentee to take care of those needs. We highly recommend building a relationship with other ancillary organizations such as food banks, clothing closets, and churches. If you want to provide basic items, we're ok with that, as long as the mentee and their family know it's coming from someone other than you. This is a benefit to mentoring with a specific organization - they can be the fall guy when someone asks you for a gift. You can blame it on them. But there is a difference between a want and a need. We recommend that you do not purchase your mentee anything with the exception of a birthday present. We recommend that you place a $25 cap on the birthday gift that you purchase. An occasional purchasing of food and treats is another thing. Perhaps you want to take your mentee to a game or movie. Those are ok as long as you follow the rule of three and you make sure it doesn't turn into something the mentee expects. Your presence is enough. Obviously this is assuming basic needs are being provided, the best gift you can give your mentee is love and relationship. --Please follow @youcanmentor on social media and give us a 5 star rating! If you are a part of a mentoring organization, we'd love to get to know you! Please reach out to us and we can spotlight your org on the pod or on our website.

The Art of Gift-Giving: Unwrapping the Emotions Behind Our Presents.Gift-giving is more than just handing over a wrapped present; it's a symbol of communication and connection. How can a simple gesture, like a bowl of homemade muffins, speak louder than the most lavish of presents? We look at the unspoken rules of giving. Can the pressure to pick out the perfect gift make us lose sight of what truly matters? And do we give out of obligation or from the heart? Join Robin Kermode and Sian Hansen for another fun podcast episode that celebrates the true spirit of giving and what we are communicating when we give.

Gift-giving can sometimes be difficult when trying to find the right thing for certain people in our lives. We want to give gifts that people will enjoy and love. But, many of us who we buy gifts for already have the things they want or need. We don't want to give gifts that will collect dust in someone's home. And I don't mean it in a way that the person would not love the gift you got them. But, sometimes we all end up with too much stuff. Gifts that won't collect dust are consumable gifts that can be used and enjoyed. They do not require a permanent place in someone's home. So, if you feel like you are struggling to find the right gift for someone special in your life, consider giving them something consumable. https://www.lolasfrugallife.com https://www.facebook.com/LolasFrugalLife/ Check out my YouTube Channel!

Make Christmas Enjoyable And Unforgettable This Year: Master the Art of Gift-Giving with Intention and Love!
This episode is really just the beginning of a much-needed and very refreshing perspective from Nicole Caudana on how the conversation around sustainability in our world needs to begin shifting. As The Giving Gifts and Mindful Metals Studio (Nicole's incredible small business) merge together, this is actually a conversation Nicole and I are having, and together, we decided it would be really fun to invite you into this conversation with us. If there are any changes worth making in this world, shouldn't those changes be worth sustaining? This is a question that I have spent years considering when it comes to integrating mental health and trauma-informed care tools and resources into the lives of individuals and communities globally and a question Nicole has become an expert on in the world of ocean conservation, entrepreneurship, and teaching. It took shifting the shame that comes with not having it all figured out to get us to a place of being open to learning from and with one another, a gift that we are so very eager and excited to share with you. You can learn more about Nicole, Mindful Metals Studio, and what she is up to with The Giving Gifts here. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thegivinggifts/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thegivinggifts/support
Serve No Master : Escape the 9-5, Fire Your Boss, Achieve Financial Freedom
Welcome to the Serve No Master Podcast! This podcast is aimed at helping you find ways to create new revenue streams or make money online without dealing with an underpaid or underappreciated job. Our host is best-selling author, Jonathan Green.Today's guest is Steve Buzogany is a successful real estate professional who discovered the power of building relationships in his industry. Starting off in real estate, Steve struggled with the usual challenges of generating clients and growing his business. However, a mentor enlightened him about the significance of focusing on relationships rather than transactions. Taking this advice to heart, Steve shifted his approach and began cultivating strong connections with his clients. As a result, he started receiving numerous referrals, leading to a staggering 73% of his business coming from trusted recommendations. Steve's ability to foster strong relationships did not go unnoticed by his peers. Other agents in his office marveled at his expertise in generating referrals and sought his advice on replicating his success. Steve shared his strategies, emphasizing the importance of giving thoughtful client gifts and going the extra mile to nurture relationships. In this episode, Steve Buzogany shares his journey from struggling to generate clients in real estate to finding success by focusing on building relationships rather than just transactions. He saw 73% of his business come through referrals as a result. Recognizing the market for this service, Steve started Appreciation Advocate. During the episode, Steve questions the value of corporate gifts, comparing them to pens with pharmaceutical company names on them. He emphasizes the importance of giving useful gifts that won't be quickly discarded, like pocket knives or wallets. He also discusses the pitfalls of giving gifts that are not easily personalized or those that are branded and may inconvenience international recipients. They underscore the importance of personalized gifts to balance intentions and avoid lazy and impersonal options like gift cards. They also explore the power of networking, the value of lower-level employees, and the need for thoughtfulness and effort in gift-giving. Notable Quotes- "if you focus more on the relationship, they would give you referrals, and then you could work with the referrals who would come with a preexisting trust, and then you wouldn't have to work as hard." - [Steve Buzogany]- "If you're wondering why you're not getting a lot of referrals in your business, then maybe it's because you're not building a deep enough relationship with people."- [Steve Buzogany]- "The barrier is so much lower than people think. We all hear the phrase, it's the thought that counts, but no one believes that." - [Jonathan Green]- "There's something that I learned because I'm really a big advocate of networking and a lot of people don't realize the power of the introduction." - [Jonathan Green]Connect with Steve BuzoganyWebsite: appreciationadvocate.comConnect with Jonathan Green The Bestseller: Serve No Master Free Book on Amazon: Fire Your Boss Podcast Website: https://servenomaster.com/podcast/ Subscribe, Rate, and Review: https://servenomaster.com/itunes Video Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@ServeNoMasterPodcast
