I have a good friend that is a fishing guide. Great man but a "Murica Fuck Yea" type.

A friend and I chartered him and were talking about tipping in cash so he'd not pay taxes. He said "I report everything including cash tips".

My bud and I went Soup Nazi on him, "NO TIP FOR YOU"!

The only reason I was even paying the trip cost on a card is to game the tax system and make it a write off for "client entertainment", which it absolutely was.

Wonder what he thinks now about Biden going after servers for 100% tip reporting? Because of course he hates Biden and socialism. 🙄

He‘ll understand eventually. I empathize with people who fear the IRS if they don’t know how to counter them.

No he's on the edge of really old GenX and Boomer. If you don't get it by now you never will at that age.

As long as he can feel the pain eventually he too will turn to a solution. Might be fully off grid though, who knows.
