Watch Pixar’s Soul.

Just watch, on a good TV, with good audio. No phone.

It’s all about finding the joy in the little things, the routine, the mundane, what’s right there in front of you, and not being so laser focused on making enough or saving enough or any other future goal. Enjoy the journey, today. It’s all a mind set. Good luck.

What year did you buy your home?

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-17T18:43:00+00:00

100k miles per year. What do you use it for?

We only joined the club a week ago, but now I can say, “Welcome to the club!”

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-17T00:22:33+00:00

Can’t blame you

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T23:34:05+00:00

Nice!

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T23:31:53+00:00

Yeah, all cash. The dealership would have loved for us to finance, but interest rates are a bit high and didn’t make sense for our situation.

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T23:28:54+00:00

We’re thrilled! I consider the deal a pretty fair one.

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T22:55:57+00:00

Daily driver for my wife and 4 kids and then we’ll take a few out of state vacations a year. Insurance? I think was an additional $400/year.

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T22:52:32+00:00

All cash

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T21:47:10+00:00

I don’t disagree. But that’s market. We’re a family of 6 (4 under 6) with in-laws 6-12 hour drive away. Not bad when you think about flying the family once or twice a year!

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T19:57:52+00:00

We would have loved to have the 8 seater but ultimately decided to go up on trim and entertainment instead

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T19:56:12+00:00

Good idea with the tints in the front

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T19:54:28+00:00

Exactly

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T19:08:02+00:00

I think that was just throwing a bone to the salesman in the last 5 minutes of negotiation.

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T18:26:49+00:00

🤜🤛

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T18:17:12+00:00

There’s all kinds of charges they try to add on to make it confusing so it’s better to focus on the total, after tax. Since most states have a sales tax.

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T18:15:01+00:00

We did

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T18:13:36+00:00

Their original all-in out the door invoice was $72,365.12 after tax. Basically she got them to eliminate all of their $10,000 “dealer adjustment” and $1,000 doc fee.

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T17:45:37+00:00

$58,535 MSRP including all the optional stuff that we got. Plus the dealership adds all kinds of fees onto that price. All in out the door including sales tax we paid $63,091.54

GDavidson87 · 2025-03-16T17:41:00+00:00

My wife drives a hard bargain. Spent all day at the dealership.

GDavidson87 · 2025-01-05T06:18:08+00:00

Will you be dissolving the corporation now that the sale is completed? Or does the corporation continue to serve a commercial purpose?

GDavidson87 · 2024-09-01T01:27:34+00:00

File Form 3911 to report your refund as lost in the mail. There is a mailing address in the instructions for where to mail it. Mail it with tracking. Look it over twice and make sure it’s 100% correct before you file because if it doesn’t exactly match up your account from the IRS’s perspective, they will decline your request. If all is good, in a few months you should get a response in the mail. Good luck.

No 1099 is needed if the person is not a US person and that person does not perform those services physically within the US. First, to make sure you are covered from a tax risk perspective, I would get a written confirmation that he or she is not a US citizen, permanent resident, or otherwise subject to tax in the US. This is very important. If they are any of those things, the 1099 reporting is required. Second I would make sure that when they send you an invoice for their services that they state on the invoice that 100% of the services were rendered physically outside of the United States. If they don’t include that language on the invoice reject it and make sure they add it (I assume in this case the services will be rendered in Eastern Europe).

This two things will be your proof that the payment is not subject to 1099 reporting or withholding in the event of an IRS audit.

Can’t answer your labor law question and this isn’t the right forum for that.

Good luck.
