//The Wire//2300Z September 18, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: TRUMP STATES INTENT TO CLASSIFY ANTIFA AS TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. CHICAGO MAYOR LAMENTS IMPENDING NATIONAL GUARD DEPLOYMENT.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Illinois: Statements by local mayor Brandon Johnson have continued to escalate as the National Guard deployment to Chicago draws near. Johnson stated that “Jails and incarceration and law enforcement is a sickness that has not led to safe communities”, and that he intends to "eradicate" this "sickness".Analyst Comment: It is often a hard sell to convince the public that putting violent criminals in prison is against the best interests of the taxpayer, but Johnson continues to make that argument nonetheless. Right now there is no real confirmation of how the National Guard QRF is to be deployed around the city, though city and state opposition has been high.California: Following yesterday's statements by the FCC Chairman, the ABC network has pulled the Jimmy Kimmel show from it's timeslot indefinitely.Analyst Comment: The network does not care about the crass statements that were made, as it encouraged this behavior for many years. However, getting their license yanked at a time where their ratings are already down would not have been a positive outcome for them.Washington D.C. - Yesterday evening President Trump stated his intent to designate ANTIFA as a terrorist organization on social media.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Beyond President Trump's short post on social media, no details have been provided on this designation yet, or how it's going to work out paperwork-wise. ANTIFA certainly has foreign roots, but in most cases is not explicitly foreign-controlled, so a designation by the State Department as being an FTO might not be an adequate fit. Nevertheless, if the intent is to create a label that ensures more federal charges can be pursued against militants (instead of the catch-and-release that ANTIFA is used to), there are plenty of options. The White House is probably also looking at RICO options regarding the bail-fund practices for ANTIFA members, which have industrialized the process of rotating through the court system.More directly, ANTIFA activities are certain to increase due to this designation, whatever it works out to be. Low-level demonstrations are certain to take place in the usual areas, and more kinetic "Direct Action" attacks are also quite likely to spring up, though larger efforts may take some time to organize. Either way, ANTIFA can certainly mobilize faster than government forces can respond in most cases, though the biggest barriers to ANTIFA operations right now are funding and a lack of coherent picture at higher levels of organization. For many years, ANTIFA has had no natural predators in their environment, and has been allowed to conduct all manner of activities without any sort of barriers at all. Designating this group as a terrorist organization also isn't really necessary; almost all ANTIFA publications directly state that they seek to use violence to further their political goals...which is the textbook definition of terrorism. Where a federal "terrorism" label (however it works out) can be applied, is in cases where local prosecutors won't prosecute terrorist attacks, or more importantly, in the dismantling of the financial networks which have openly been operating under shady LLCs and nonprofit groups, which have acted as shell corporations for ANTIFA funding sources. This still requires federal agencies and prosecutors to *actually prosecute* under the current laws that exist, which is still a bridge too far in most jurisdictions.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

The sermon explores the concept of the church as a household, emphasizing its distinct nature from modern corporate structures like LLCs or corporations. Drawing from 1 Timothy 3, 1 Corinthians 3, and Ephesians 2, the message highlights the importance of covenant succession, inheritance, and hierarchical obedience within the church community, asserting that individual behavior directly impacts the entire body. It challenges the notion of casual membership, advocating for a deeper commitment akin to adoption and inheritance, while also affirming the vital role of dedicated service to the church, exemplified by figures like Dorcas and Anna, and ultimately pointing to the church as the ultimate household of faith, where individuals can contribute meaningfully regardless of familial status.

ode of Tax Tuesday, Anderson attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle a diverse range of tax questions from viewers. They explore the differences between PadSplit/co-living models and short-term rentals, explaining why PadSplit typically doesn't qualify for the same tax advantages as short-term rental activities. The duo covers entity formation costs and how they're treated for disregarded LLCs, the importance of proper documentation for independent contractor payments including W-9 forms and 1099 requirements, and cryptocurrency taxation for long-term holders. They also discuss offsetting bond interest with stock losses, wash sale rules for options trading, 1031 exchange strategies including improvement exchanges to minimize boot taxation, and comprehensive guidance on real estate professional status requirements. The episode concludes with settling a marital dispute about whether primary residence maintenance counts toward real estate professional status hours. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics: "Are the fees for disregarded LLCs taxable on the business return or the personal return?" - Fees follow the entity's disregarded destination and activity type. "Will the PadSplit/co-living model give you the same tax advantage as a short-term rental?" - No, PadSplit typically doesn't qualify for short-term rental benefits. "Last year I purchased a three-level eight-bedroom house with one kitchen and one bathroom on each floor. I rent the floors as separate apartments except for one level where I have two rooms rented separately. I put the house in service on January 25. I listed it as my primary residence. I never actually lived there. Can I perform a cost segregation, take advantage of bonus depreciation, et cetera?" - Yes for cost seg, but homestead fraud concerns exist. "I paid freelancers to put up a fence last year. I didn't get a receipt. Can I write off any of the costs of this fence? I used my company credit card or bank checks to conduct business with vendors and stores. I am bad at keeping receipts. But I print my bank statements. Can I use my statements as proof of purchase for tax purposes?" - Bank statements help but proper W-9s and 1099s are required. "I will be receiving profits from the sale of cryptocurrency investments that I've had for five years. I'm retired and receive social security as my only income. How will this crypto be gained from an IRS perspective?" - Taxed as capital gains, likely at fifteen percent rate. "Can interest gained on a US savings bond be offset with the loss on a stock sale for tax purposes?" - Yes, up to three thousand annually against ordinary income. "If I sell a stock at a loss and purchase calls instead, do I lose my loss benefit as if I had repurchased more stock within the 30 day period? Or in simpler terms, are calls treated the same as stock?" - Yes, calls typically trigger wash sale rule provisions. "We did a 1031 exchange with the building we own, but the place that we bought the replacement property was 250,000 cheaper. How do we minimize our capital gains on the leftover money? I know we can use capital improvements that we've made, but what are the rules and how must we document the improvements? Likewise, can we use depreciation schedules from the prior returns for the new tax returns?" - improvement exchanges must occur during exchange. "I wanna know more about the tests for real estate professional status as a way to deduct expenses from other passive income. I understand that I need 750 hours, but this is very loose and I'm not sure how it is audited exactly." - 750 hours plus fifty percent test, requires detailed documentation. "Please settle this one thing that my husband and I disagree on, I say that maintenance on our primary residence cannot be used towards rep status. He says certain things you could count towards reps would be pool maintenance, HVAC service, et cetera. I say no because it's a primary residence and reps is strictly for time you spend on rentals only. I'd like him to not have to sleep on the couch any longer." - No, personal residence maintenance doesn't count toward business hours.

Money makes the world go 'round, and it does that by flowing.  Money in your business, money out to employees, vendors, investments, and the ever present tax-man.

As you know, we focus on helping people get the most out of their corporation or llc. And one of the ways we help people do that is by helping them build business credit.

Everyone says never sell real estate. But what if letting go of one property could unlock the next level of your life? In this episode, we break down why we're selling a cash-flowing rental despite the classic “buy and hold forever” advice. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the numbers, the emotional side of the decision, and how life events like buying a dream home or paying for a wedding can actually be fuel for smart real estate exits. We cover how much equity we built, the return on equity calculation that helped make the call, and the real reason we're choosing velocity over long-term appreciation. This isn't about quitting the game, it's about playing it better. You'll also learn how to navigate 50/50 partnerships, evaluate opportunity cost, and reframe your portfolio to support the life you want. If you're stuck deciding whether to refi, 1031 exchange, or sell a rental… this episode might give you the clarity you've been looking for. Book your mentorship discovery call with Cory RESOURCES

Are you a landowner who wants your ranch to pass cleanly to the next generation—or a land agent tired of deals dying over cloudy title? In this episode of The National Land Podcast, host Mac Christian sits down with Tiffany Dowell Lashmet (Ag Law Professor & Extension Specialist, Texas A&M) and Wayne Dunson (Managing Broker, National Land Realty—West Texas) to demystify probate—the legal process that moves assets from the deceased to the living—and the tools that keep it from blowing up your land plans. What You'll Learn: What probate is and why you still need it even if there's a will Dying without a will (intestacy): how state statutes—not your wishes—divide assets and create messy joint ownership Why failing to probate strands title in the deceased's name, blocks sales, and costs heirs more later (e.g., Texas has a typical 4-year window) Wills vs. Trusts: trusts can bypass probate entirely; when each makes sense for landowners Texas will execution basics: handwritten (holographic) vs. typewritten wills, witness rules, and why beneficiaries shouldn't witness Probate-avoidance tools: LLCs and transfer-on-death deeds (in Texas, revocable) to move property with only a death certificate Real-world horror stories: unknown heirs, missing co-owners, partition suits, deep discounts to clear title Family dynamics you must address now: on-farm vs. off-farm heirs, unequal contributions, and setting expectations Why DIY online forms backfire on farms/ranches—hire an ag-savvy estate-planning attorney in your state Agent playbook: verify probate status early, flag title clouds, and get clients to counsel before listing This episode is a must-listen for: Landowners and family decision-makers on farms and ranches Heirs, executors, and trustees facing title/estate questions Land agents/brokers who want to prevent deal-killing probate issues CPAs and attorneys serving rural clients Don't punt on probate.

All the work (to his credit!) that Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has done to make Georgia a green energy and electric vehicle manufacturing hub are slowly being undone by Trump 2.0 white nationalist tendencies. The recent Hyundai raid in southeast Georgia performed by ICE was launched to snag Latin American migrant workers but also - oops - ensnared Korean and Japanese visa waiver employees, putting strain on U.S.-Korean and Georgia-Korean relations. It also creates an unnecessary impediment towards completing the construction of the plant soon to hire 8000 Georgians. You know ICE wasn't prepared to deal with Koreans when you realize they had not one Korean interpreter among them.But here's the thing: among the few dozen Hispanic construction workers that were swept up, some may have legal status and the others appear to be hires of quickly-popped up LLCs who appeared days before or after the announcement of the plant's construction, leaving local contractors receiving far less of the economic impact they were expecting. Through it all, though, the currency of choice for Trump 2.0 - fear and intimidation - has people here legally, as well, cowering. ------Brad Raffensperger hasn't announced what his 2026 political aspirations are, but his former chief operating officer - Gabriel Sterling - has. So far, no Democrat has announced their intention to seek the office of Secretary of State as Sterling and two other Democrats have, and it's my view that it may not matter if the party fielded a candidate at all but someone needs to step up quickly and start making the case. Raffensperger, meanwhile, has made it clear he's running for something, that "something" likely the governor's office, which presents an interesting and tantalizing opportunity for Democrats to cross lines and vote for the far lesser of the batch of evils in the GOP gubernatorial race - if Democrats manage to have a clear favorite by primary election day.-------The decision by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution to shutter its print operations by the end of the year is unsurprising, but has me concerned about access for the poor, but also got me to talking about the trajectory even radio is headed towards - which might not necessarily be a bad thing given talk radio being mostly gripped by right wing extremism. Indulge me, if you will, while I also take the opportunity to tout what this show does and plans for the station it airs on out of Atlanta.

This Day in Legal History: A. Lincoln Admitted to BarOn September 9, 1836, Abraham Lincoln was licensed to practice law by the Illinois Supreme Court, setting in motion a legal and political career that would ultimately reshape American history. At the time, Lincoln was a 27-year-old former store clerk and self-taught frontier intellectual, with no formal legal education. Instead, like many aspiring attorneys of the era, Lincoln "read law" by apprenticing under established lawyers and studying foundational legal texts such as Blackstone's Commentaries and Chitty's Pleadings. His relentless self-education and growing reputation for honesty earned him the nickname “Honest Abe,” long before he entered the national spotlight.Shortly after being admitted to the bar, Lincoln moved to Springfield, Illinois, where he set up a law practice. His first lawsuit came less than a month later, on October 5, 1836, marking the beginning of a legal career that would span over two decades. Lincoln took on a wide variety of cases—ranging from debt collection and land disputes to criminal defense and railroad litigation—and traveled extensively on the Illinois Eighth Judicial Circuit.His courtroom demeanor was marked by clarity, logic, and moral conviction, attributes that would later define his presidency. Practicing law not only gave Lincoln financial stability but also honed the rhetorical and analytical skills that would serve him in legislative debates and national addresses. His legal work with the Illinois Central Railroad and other corporate clients exposed him to the country's economic transformation, deepening his understanding of commerce, labor, and the law's role in shaping society.Lincoln's rise from rural obscurity to respected attorney mirrored the American ideal of self-made success, and his legal background profoundly shaped his political philosophy. It was as a lawyer and legislator that he began to articulate his opposition to slavery's expansion, using constitutional and moral arguments that would later guide his presidency and the Union's legal stance during the Civil War.His legal reasoning and insistence on the rule of law would ultimately be central to the Emancipation Proclamation, his wartime governance, and the framework for reconstructing the nation. The law gave Lincoln the tools to interpret and preserve the Constitution, even amid its greatest crisis.Lincoln's admission to the bar on this day in 1836 was not just a personal milestone—it was a foundational step toward the presidency and toward a redefinition of American liberty and union that would endure for generations.Events ripple in time like waves on a pond, and Lincoln's admission to the bar in 1836 is one such stone cast into history. Had he not secured that license—had he not taught himself law from borrowed books and legal treatises—it is likely he never would have risen to national prominence or attained the presidency. Without Lincoln's leadership in 1860, the United States may well have fractured permanently into separate nations, altering the course of the Civil War and leaving a divided continent in its wake. That division would have profoundly reshaped global affairs in the 20th century. Not to put too fine a point on it, but the fact that there was a United States powerful and unified enough to confront the Nazi war machine in 1941 traces, in part, to a frontier shop clerk's grit, discipline, and determination to study Blackstone's Commentaries by candlelight.A Florida state appeals judge who sided with Donald Trump in a high-profile defamation case against the Pulitzer Prize Board has been confirmed to the federal bench. On Monday, the U.S. Senate voted 50–43 along party lines to approve Judge Ed Artau's nomination to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Artau is now the sixth Trump judicial nominee to be confirmed during the president's second term.Artau joined a panel earlier this year that allowed Trump's lawsuit to proceed after the Pulitzer Board declined to rescind a 2018 award given to The New York Times and The Washington Post for their reporting on Russian interference in the 2016 election. In a concurring opinion, Artau criticized the reporting as “now-debunked” and echoed calls to revisit New York Times v. Sullivan, the Supreme Court precedent that has long protected journalists from most defamation claims by public figures.The timing of Artau's nomination has drawn scrutiny from Senate Democrats, who argue it raises ethical concerns. Artau reportedly began conversations about a possible federal appointment just days after Trump's 2024 victory and interviewed with the White House shortly after issuing his opinion in the Pulitzer case. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called the confirmation a “blatant” example of quid pro quo, while others questioned Artau's impartiality.In response, Artau defended his conduct during his Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, stating that ambition for higher office alone doesn't disqualify a judge from ruling on politically sensitive cases and that he holds no personal bias requiring recusal.Florida judge who ruled for Trump in Pulitzer case confirmed to federal bench | ReutersAfter 21 years, one of legal academia's most influential blogs is shutting down. The TaxProf Blog, launched in 2004 by Pepperdine Law Dean Paul Caron, will cease publication by the end of September following the closure of its longtime host platform, Typepad. Caron said he isn't interested in rebuilding the site on a new platform, though he hopes to preserve the blog's extensive archive of nearly 56,000 posts.Initially focused on tax law, the blog evolved into a central hub for news and commentary on law schools, covering accreditation, rankings, faculty hiring, admissions trends, and more. It maintained its relevance even as other law professor blogs declined in the wake of Twitter's rise. Caron's regular posts made the site a must-read in the legal education world, often mixing in personal reflections and occasional commentary on religion.The closure also casts uncertainty over the broader Law Professor Blog Network, which includes around 60 niche academic blogs also hosted on Typepad. At least one, ImmigrationProf Blog, has already begun looking for a new publishing home.Reactions across the legal academy reflected the impact of the blog's departure. One law school dean likened it to daily sports reporting for legal education—a constant, trusted source of updates and debate.Groundbreaking law blog calls it quits after 21 years | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court has sided with the Trump administration in a contentious immigration case, allowing federal agents to resume aggressive raids in Southern California. The Court granted a request from the Justice Department to lift a lower court order that had restricted immigration stops based on race, language, or occupation—factors critics argue are being used to disproportionately target Latino communities. The ruling, delivered in a brief, unsigned order with no explanation, permits the raids to continue while a broader legal challenge proceeds.The case stems from a July order by U.S. District Judge Maame Frimpong, who found that the administration's actions likely violated the Fourth Amendment by enabling racially discriminatory stops without reasonable suspicion. Her injunction applied across much of Southern California, but is now paused by the Supreme Court's decision.Justice Sonia Sotomayor, joined by the Court's other two liberals, issued a sharp dissent, warning that the decision effectively declares all Latinos "fair game to be seized at any time," regardless of citizenship. She described the raids as racially motivated and unconstitutional.California Governor Gavin Newsom and civil rights groups echoed those concerns. Newsom accused the Court of legitimizing racial profiling and called Trump's enforcement actions a form of "racial terror." The ACLU, representing plaintiffs in the case, including U.S. citizens, denounced the raids as part of a broader “racist deportation scheme.”The Trump administration, meanwhile, hailed the decision as a major legal victory. Attorney General Pam Bondi framed it as a rejection of “judicial micromanagement,” and Justice Brett Kavanaugh, writing separately, argued that while ethnicity alone cannot justify a stop, it may be used in combination with other factors.This ruling adds to a series of recent Supreme Court decisions backing Trump's immigration agenda, including policies that limit asylum protections and revoke humanitarian legal statuses. In Los Angeles, the raids and the use of military personnel in response to protests have escalated tensions between the federal government and local authorities.US Supreme Court backs Trump on aggressive immigration raids | ReutersA federal appeals court has upheld an $83.3 million jury verdict against Donald Trump for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll, rejecting his claims of presidential immunity. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found the damages appropriate given the severity and persistence of Trump's conduct, which it called “remarkably high” in terms of reprehensibility. The ruling noted that Trump's attacks on Carroll grew more extreme as the trial neared, contributing to reputational and emotional harm.The lawsuit stemmed from Trump's repeated public denials of Carroll's allegation that he sexually assaulted her in the 1990s. In 2019, Trump claimed Carroll was “not my type” and said she fabricated the story to sell books—comments he echoed again in 2022, prompting a second defamation suit. A jury in 2023 had already found Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation in an earlier case, awarding Carroll $5 million. That verdict was also upheld.Trump's legal team argued that his 2019 comments were made in his official capacity as president and should be shielded by presidential immunity. The court disagreed, citing a lack of legal basis to extend immunity in this context. Trump also objected to limits placed on his testimony during trial, but the appeals court upheld the trial judge's rulings as appropriate.The $83.3 million award includes $18.3 million in compensatory damages and $65 million in punitive damages. Carroll's legal team expressed hope that the appeals process would soon conclude. Trump, meanwhile, framed the ruling as part of what he calls “Liberal Lawfare” amid multiple ongoing legal battles.Trump fails to overturn E. Jean Carroll's $83 million verdict | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week takes aim at the so-called "Taylor Swift Tax" in Rhode Island—an annual surtax on non-primary residences valued over $1 million. While the headline-grabbing nickname guarantees media coverage, the underlying policy is flawed, both economically and politically.Rhode Island isn't alone—Montana, Cape Cod, and Los Angeles have all attempted to capture revenue from wealthy property owners through targeted taxes on high-end real estate. But these narrowly tailored levies often distort markets, suppress transactions, and encourage avoidance rather than compliance. LA's mansion tax, for example, dramatically underperformed because property owners simply didn't sell.The appeal of taxing second homes is clear: they're luxury assets often owned by out-of-staters with little political influence. But that lack of local connection also makes them an unreliable revenue base. It's relatively easy to sell, reclassify, or relocate a vacation property, particularly for the affluent. And when policies hinge on fuzzy concepts like "primary residence," they invite loopholes and enforcement challenges—especially when properties are held by LLCs or trusts.Rhode Island's new tax could drive potential buyers to nearby Connecticut, undermining its own housing market and revenue goals. If states want to tax wealth effectively, they must resist headline-chasing and instead build durable, scalable policies: regular reassessments, vacancy levies, and infrastructure-based cost recovery. These methods avoid the pitfalls of ambiguous residency tests and create more predictable revenue streams.And because discretionary wealth is mobile, real solutions will require cooperation—harmonized assessments, multistate compacts, and shared reporting. But more fundamentally, states looking for progressive revenue should aim higher—toward income and wealth taxes—rather than tinkering at the margins with weekend homes.Rhode Island Should Shake Off ‘Taylor Swift Tax' on Second Homes This is a public episode.

In this episode of The Mentor Podcast, Ron sits down with Adel Kayati — Ron's partner, lead acquisitionist, and a mentor with Global Publishing. Adel is hands-on with students (including live seller calls) and actively buying deals alongside Ron. In this episode, Ron and Adel lay out a practical, no-nonsense framework to eliminate the biggest risks in real estate while still doing profitable deals right now. What you'll learn about in this episode Why you should never personally guarantee debt—and how that single decision protects your credit, assets, and sanity. The title-holding structure Ron uses on every deal: one property per land trust, owned by an LLC (which is owned by Ron and his wife)—and why taking title in your personal name is a bad idea. Land trusts 101: simple deed + trust agreement, privacy benefits, and where to find the forms and training. No-recourse terms deals: buying with wraps, “subject-to,” or lease-purchase—the trust signs, not you; the house is the only collateral; nothing hits your credit. The MAO (“mayo”) rule for junkers: MAO = ARV × 0.70 − repairs (use 0.80 if ARV > $300k) — and never pay MAO. Ron's rehab rule of thumb: only touch rehabs when ARV ≥ purchase + repairs + ~$100k (≈ $50k profit + $50k carrying/transaction costs). Why wholesaling is Ron's favorite “no-risk” strategy (e.g., $10 earnest money to $20k–$50k checks) — and why it's a perfect fit for Roth IRA profits. FSBO focus vs. MLS grind: why most MLS deals won't pencil and how Ron filters them fast. A simple private-money safety check: don't borrow more than 65% of ARV on junkers. Market-timed tactics: in a sliding market, get conservative on ARV, avoid most rehabs, and prioritize wholesales and terms. Terms-deal cash-flow safety: Make sure non-refundable option deposit > your total cash out of pocket (down + closing). Target ≥5% of price for the deposit; delay first payment until the 3rd month after closing or vacancy, whichever is later. Expect near-breakeven or slight negatives on some recent high-rate loans; reserve part of the deposit to cover a year of any shortfall and big items (e.g., A/C). Easy lead targets right now: expired listings and low-equity, newer homes (many recent VA loans) in great neighborhoods—often “sell for what you owe” situations. Perspective from 44 years in the business: deals exist in every market—boom or crash—if you follow the rules above.

In this Tax Tuesday episode, Anderson Advisors' Barley Bowler, CPA, and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle ten listener questions covering essential tax strategies for business owners and real estate investors. They break down the enhanced contribution limits for solo 401(k)s, including the new employer Roth contributions and age-based catch-up provisions. The attorneys explain proper loan structures between shareholders and corporations, emphasizing documentation requirements and interest rate compliance. They cover installment payment reporting for private money loans, clarify the Augusta Rule (280A) for tax-free rental income from home meetings, and distinguish between deductible business expenses versus personal costs. Investment structuring strategies for AI and energy stocks are explored, along with C-corporation real estate ownership considerations. The episode concludes with discussions on the expanded SALT deduction limits, pass-through entity tax workarounds for high-tax states, and the new research and development tax benefits under recent legislation. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics: "What is the maximum that can be contributed to a solo 401k Roth as the employee and employer of my own business, what do I need to do to handle payroll for myself?" - Employee limits: $23,500 (under 50), $31,000 (50-59), $34,750 (60-63). Employer: 25% of compensation. Use professional payroll services. "I want to loan cash for my business to myself, since my spouse and I have regular W2 jobs that push our incomes into high, the highest tax brackets. Other than loaning money to myself to pay for rental property. Are there any other uses for those loan funds? What are the issues on the backend for repayment rights?" - Must have written documentation, regular payments, and applicable federal rate interest (4.22% for 2025). "I'm receiving installment payments on a private money loan from my borrower. Are these payments listed as income, even though the entire principal balance and interest haven't been paid yet? How do you show this on a tax return?" - Interest portion is taxable income as received. Principal repayment is not taxable. Report on Schedule B. "I have a C Corp and two LLCs. Can you clarify the tax allowance on Augusta meetings, please? Also known as 280A. I believe I was informed that I can deduct up to $1000 per month on these monthly meetings when held, is this still the case for 2024 and 2025?" - Fourteen days maximum per year regardless of entity count. Get three local quotes for reasonable rates. "Are the paid fees for business essentials and the Living Trust deductible as startup costs or operating costs?" - Business essentials are deductible (startup vs operating depends on timing). Living trust is personal expense, not deductible. “What strategies should I set to invest in AI or energy stocks?" - Wyoming LLC for passive investing. Trading partnership with C-corp for active trading and tax benefits. "A C corporation owns a disregarded LLC, which in turn owns real estate. The real estate is sold for capital gains that is incurred by the C Corp. Is this the best way to be structured?" - Never put appreciable real estate in C-corp unless flipping. For buy-and-hold, use Wyoming holding company structure. "Does the SALT (state and local tax) deduction of $40,000 apply to a joint tax return?" - Yes, $40,000 limit applies to joint returns. Phases out at $500,000 AGI but maintains $10,000 floor. "How does the new PTET (pass through entity tax) SALT (state and local tax) deduction work around policy work for high tax states like California? Are certain entities included like SSTBs (specialized service trader businesses)?" - Pass-through entities can pay state tax for federal deduction. Complex structures and publicly traded partnerships excluded. "How might the research and development (R&D) tax credit that's been affected by the big beautiful bill help me as a small business owner?" - Domestic R&D expenses can be deducted immediately (100%) or over five years. Foreign expenses still 15 years.

This episode could save you tens of thousands, if not millions, in the long run. We get the same questions all the time: Do I need an LLC for rental property investing? Should I start an LLC before buying my first rental? Where is the best state for a real estate LLC? We're not lawyers, so we can't advise on this, but we do know someone who can—Brian T. Bradley, nationally renowned asset protection lawyer. Brian has heard all the “legal advice” from social media—an LLC makes you anonymous, an LLC helps you pay no taxes, and an LLC will completely hide your assets. If you'd prefer to 1. Keep your assets yours and 2. Not spend years in federal prison, this is the episode to watch. Just following any of the above (extremely incorrect) advice could not only risk your rentals, but also put you behind bars.  In today's episode, Brian shares a masterclass on asset protection, from which legal entities you need (LLCs, trusts, partnerships), to the biggest myth about where to start an LLC, how much it costs to keep your asset protection strong, and whether you really should buy your first rental without an LLC. Don't know what an LLC even is? You better, and after this episode, you'll be a pro!

What happens after the financial freedom? In this episode, we sit down with Clark Lunt to talk about the part of the journey most people don't prepare for: finding meaning once the money is no longer the motivator. Clark shares the truth about building a successful real estate business, navigating identity shifts post-exit, and how chasing purpose—not passive income—is what really keeps you going. From his early years flipping rentals to the real reason entrepreneurs feel lost after “making it,” this conversation is raw, honest, and full of perspective. We dive deep into why surrounding yourself with the right people matters more than the perfect business plan, how staying curious creates compound returns in life and business, and why health, relationships, and self-awareness are the real flex. Whether you're trying to leave your W2 or already financially free and asking “what's next?” — this one will hit home. Book your mentorship discovery call with Cory RESOURCES

In this case before the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands, the co-executors of Jeffrey Epstein's estate, Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn, filed a reply brief supporting their expedited motion to vacate liens placed by the Government of the Virgin Islands. The estate and its affiliated entities—including the 1953 Trust, various LLCs, and corporate holdings—are defendants in a civil action seeking damages connected to Epstein's trafficking network. The government had imposed liens on estate assets, effectively freezing large portions of Epstein's wealth, to secure potential recovery in its lawsuit.The co-executors argue in their reply brief that the liens are improper and should be lifted immediately, claiming the government has overreached its authority and is unfairly restricting the administration of the estate. They contend that the liens impede their legal responsibilities to manage and distribute assets, and that alternative legal safeguards already exist to protect the government's claims. The filing stresses urgency, pointing to potential harm caused by the restrictions, and asks the court to expedite relief by vacating the liens.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:DisplayFile.aspx (vicourts.org)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Most people talk about investing in real estate. Ray Murphy actually did it — in just 90 days. At 28 years old, Ray was on the fast track at a prestigious architecture firm, but after watching senior leaders chained to their desks for 80 hours a week, he realized he didn't want that to be his future. So he made a decision: build wealth now — not someday. In this episode, Ray breaks down how he went from analysis paralysis to buying a $400K triplex in Philadelphia using just 5% down. He shares the mindset shift that made real estate feel non-negotiable, how mentorship gave him the blueprint, and the exact systems he used to take action without burning out. Ray opens up about the fear of starting, the process of moving cities to house hack, and how investing in himself changed everything. If you've ever said, “I want to invest in real estate… I'm just not ready yet,” Ray's story will change the way you think — and show you exactly what's possible when you stop waiting and start moving. Book your mentorship discovery call with Cory RESOURCES

The wealth that's been created in farming and the transfer that's coming is unprecedented, yet many farm families still put off crucial estate planning conversations. In this insightful discussion with senior wealth consultant Galen McGregor, we unpack the essential components of effective farm legacy planning and why it matters at every age – not just for the elderly.Farm families face unique challenges when transitioning assets between generations. From deciding who gets which parcel of land to managing the delicate balance between fair and equal distribution among heirs, these decisions require thoughtful consideration. As Galen explains, "Once you have worked with one family, you've just worked with one family," because each situation demands customized solutions that honor both financial realities and family dynamics.We explore the five core components every comprehensive estate plan should include: a last will and testament, financial power of attorney, healthcare power of attorney, living will, and potentially a revocable trust. Surprisingly, everyone needs the first four components by age 18 – something many farm families overlook until it's too late. The conversation also highlights practical strategies for asset protection, including structuring operations with separate LLCs for crops, machinery, and land to limit liability exposure.Perhaps most compelling is Galen's emphasis on the non-financial aspects of legacy planning. Her recommendation to create a "letter of wishes" – a personal explanation of your estate decisions – can prevent misunderstandings and preserve family relationships after you're gone. As she puts it, "Sometimes it's not just money, but how do you want them to operate every day and treat others?" This perspective transforms estate planning from a purely financial exercise into a meaningful expression of your values and hopes for future generations.Whether you're just starting your farming career or contemplating retirement, this conversation offers practical guidance for protecting what matters most – your land, your legacy, and your family's future. Take the first step today by writing down your three or four most important wishes for your farm's future.Follow at www.americalandauctioneer.com and on Instagram & FacebookContact the team at Pifer's

The Red Dirt Agronomy Podcast team traveled to Wichita for High Plains Journal Live, where they sat down with Dr. Shannon Ferrell of Oklahoma State University. In this lively conversation, Dr. Ferrell dives deep into the realities of farm succession planning, from the traditional “farm kid vs. city kid” dilemma to the increasingly common “no heirs returning” challenge. He explains how recent legislative changes in the “One Big Beautiful Bill” affect payment limits for LLCs, estate tax exemptions, and spousal portability—critical details for farm families planning their future.The discussion also turns toward energy, with a look at the booming solar industry, the economics of battery storage, and what the phase-out of renewable tax credits might mean for rural Oklahoma. Dr. Ferrell offers a bold proposal for modernizing transmission easement compensation, encouraging landowner participation in much-needed infrastructure projects. Whether you're thinking about passing down your farm or eyeing new opportunities in renewable energy, this episode is packed with insights you can use.Key TakeawaysFarm transition planning is shifting from farm kid vs. city kid challenges to situations where no heirs return to the operation.LLCs can now receive combined payment limits for partners, removing a barrier to certain succession structures.Estate tax exemption rises to $15M per individual in 2026, with spousal portability ensuring up to $30M passes tax-free.Gift tax exclusions allow $19,000 per person annually without impacting the unified credit.Renewable energy development in Oklahoma remains strong despite upcoming tax credit phase-outs.Solar power costs have plummeted globally, with innovative uses emerging.Battery storage is now economically viable, making renewable power dispatchable.Phase-out of federal tax credits may alter investment patterns but likely won't halt projects.Transmission easement models may need modernization to include ongoing revenue for landowners.Distributed generation could reduce long-distance transmission needs, but grid resilience still requires infrastructure expansion.Timestamps00:00 – Live from High Plains Journal Live in Wichita, KS02:00 – Introducing the Dream Team of Dirt03:15 – Dr. Shannon Ferrell's summer speaking tour highlights04:39 – Farm succession planning: Farm kid vs. city kid dilemma06:32 – No heirs returning: options for farm asset transitions08:14 – “One Big Beautiful Bill” and changes to payment limits for LLCs09:14 – Estate tax updates and spousal portability explained13:49 – Gift tax rules and unified credit in farm succession15:15 – Tax provisions that impact transition planning15:46 – Renewable energy development: wind, solar, and batteries18:08 – Phase-out of renewable energy tax credits and industry impacts20:36 – Battery storage economics and dispatchable power22:15 – Tariffs, supply chains, and domestic manufacturing for energy tech25:18 – Transmission easements and incentivizing landowners27:38 – Distributed generation and grid resilience28:21 – Wrapping up the Summer Ferrell Tour   RedDirtAgronomy.com

Most people never take the leap — not because they can't, but because they're waiting to “feel ready.” In this episode, we dismantle the most dangerous lie holding you back: the belief that someday you'll feel more confident, more qualified, or more prepared than you do right now. We break down the real reason people stall on life-changing decisions — whether it's starting a business, buying their first rental property, hiring a coach, investing in themselves, or leaving a job that no longer serves them. You'll hear personal stories, uncomfortable truths, and hard-earned lessons about why action always beats perfection. If you've ever said “I'm not ready yet” or felt paralyzed by fear, this is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed. The clock's ticking. Success doesn't wait. Neither should you. RESOURCES

Jeffrey Epstein's wealth has long been shrouded in secrecy, speculation, and inconsistencies. Despite presenting himself as a billionaire financier, no one has ever been able to definitively explain how Epstein made his fortune. He claimed to manage the wealth of billionaires, yet no verified client list has ever surfaced—aside from limited associations like Les Wexner, who later distanced himself. Epstein's financial records revealed only vague structures: trusts, shell companies, offshore accounts, and tangled partnerships that seemed designed to obscure rather than clarify. His apparent lack of a legitimate client base, coupled with his lavish lifestyle and real estate empire, raised persistent questions that were never adequately answered.Even prosecutors struggled to untangle the full scope of his financial network. His assets were housed across multiple jurisdictions, including the Virgin Islands, New York, and various offshore havens. Investigations found layers of LLCs, obscure investment vehicles, and unexplained cash flows that complicated any attempt at transparency. There were credible suspicions that Epstein's fortune was not purely financial in nature but rather tied to his leverage over powerful individuals—possibly through blackmail, information trafficking, or other covert arrangements. The deeper authorities dug, the more opaque the picture became, leaving Epstein's true sources of wealth as murky and suspicious as the crimes he was accused of.to contact me:Bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/02/business/jeffrey-epstein-deutsche-bank.htmlBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
