I've been working with a guy I've known for years - he started up a
mechanical engineering/machine shop that does custom fittings and
highly specialized machined parts for all kinds of industries. He has
some metallurgical expertise that's hard to find and some machinists
who are absolute geniuses with a CNC machine.

He pays himself $1 more than the highest paid employee he has.



The problem is that he is the business owner. I could pay myself $8.00
and hour but, at the end of the year, my personal income tax bill would
be well over $100K if I took my profit as retained earnings. He's
probably an S-corp, too so if he's profitable, the money has to go
somewhere.


There is a simple reason for this.

Wages are subject to FICA taxes up to around 95k a year, and there is no
limit to the Medicare Tax.

By taking a reasonable wage, and then taking the rest of business profits
as dividends, you legally avoid paying the addiontal taxes.



True, but then I would have to live on under $95K throughout the year and
take he rest as income in a lump sum.

That is the trick with owning a business. You always drive a company
vehicle, with a company gas card. You have a lot of business meals and
business trips. At a certain point you don't need much salary to live
fairly well.



Yep. Welfare for the wealthy.


If all you want to do a punch a clock 9-5 M-F then all you should expect

If only it were that simple.
Anyone in the civil service can tell you that cutback after cutback has left
most departments streatched to the limit with more & more demands being
placed on the '9-5 worker'.
At least that's the way it has evolved up here since the 80s.

If you don't like what your employer pays your or demands of you then

It is not profound, it is obvious.

What other variables could be at play? As I said, if you don't like what
you get then you have the ability to change it.

But is not medicare taxable or SS taxable. And depending on the dividend,
may get the preferred taxation rate.

But it is not wages subject to the FICA taxes. You save a little over
15% for the difference between what you take in wages and 95k, then a
little over 2% afrer that.

Lets say you take 50k in wages and another 75 in dividends.
You would save more than $6750 for the income up to 95k and then around
$700 for the rest. (You do lose the 50% deduct for the fica taxes paid
though :-) )

Didn't you recently jump on someone here for their misspelling of a word?
If I recall the letter "'e" was used instead of the letter "u". When the
person claimed it was a typo you jumped on him saying that it wasn't as the
keys were not next to or near each other.

Last I checked the "e" and the "i" are separated by 4 other letters....even
more apart then "e" and "u".

So is yours a typo but the other guys was not one?

Yes, mine is clearly a typo. Since I don't hunt and peck, it's very

Don't you just love typos?

In this case, it's even more amusing.

Lea - Noun

1. a tract of open ground, esp. grassland; meadow.
2. land used for a few years for pasture or for growing hay, then
plowed over and replaced by another crop.
3. a crop of hay on tillable land.
4. untilled; fallow.

Now, go ahead - ask me how I know that.


You have manure on your Birkenstocks?

Yes, I imagine being a "leability" could be a bad thing.

Awe, how cute! Would you like me to point out each and every one of
your typos, too? You should really consider acting like an adult.


Didn't you recently jump on someone here for their misspelling of a word?


Yes. It was clearly misspelled, not a typo.
If I recall the letter "'e" was used instead of the letter "u". When the
person claimed it was a typo you jumped on him saying that it wasn't as
the
keys were not next to or near each other.


The person claimed to be a hunt and peck typist. If you "hunt" for the
letter, how could you get u and e mixed up, Jim?

Last I checked the "e" and the "i" are separated by 4 other
letters....even
more apart then "e" and "u".

So is yours a typo but the other guys was not one?

Just curious.


Yes, mine is clearly a typo. Since I don't hunt and peck, it's very
possible that each hand has it's correct digit on the i and e keys at
the same time. Thank you for your curiosity, and I hope I've cleared
things up for you.


ROTF!! Why am I not surprised?


Probably because you know, as usual that you are wrong. I thought you
had me killfiled? Please do so again, your childish bull**** does
nothing for me. But, at least you've got one friend here. It's now you
and Tim. Reach around, boys.

Many times you do. you accused me of not knowing how to type. Remember?
Maybe not.
But when typing "liability" the "I" is quite a ways away for "e"



Uh, no. YOU said you couldn't type.


Wrong again!

I said I wasn't a good typist.


Nope, sorry. Thanks for playing. You and Jim go to the corner and play
reach around.

You are asking a socialist to understand personal responsibility????



I challange you to accept personal responsibility to be an on topic poster
here and not a liability to the newsgroup.


My gosh, Don. That is an excellent suggestion! Do I note a change in your
attitude here?

John, m'man. I have no intentions of it. I don't threaten people and
cuss them out and attempt to belittle their mental capabilities. Even
though I know they may be a lot smarter than me.

OH! you said "agitators" .....

ok

It is funny how some choose to put the blame on others and not the person
who cannot control himself and fills this NG with threats, insults and
nastiness.

Never was a problem with my attitude.
I'm just trying to point out the hypocrisy here, the truly disruptive and
the worst of the unseemly.
You claim to do somewhat the same (clean up the newsgroup) but are much too
selective in who you focus on.
Obviously your plan doesn't work.
