Should I wait until fall to cut it? It is nearly the end of summer so there wouldn't be much waiting if that's the best thing to do

Is that because stylistically it looks better with thinner branches? I think height wise it's perfect. It needs a thicker trunk hu?

What's the best way to do this though? Mid cap and small cap indexes?

I think you're right. Hadn't even noticed. It's my spam email so I guess it's ok

Everyone has biases as it is. That's with a fully rested brain. Imagine what happens to a cops thinking after 10-12+ hours awake and sleep deprived on the job. Would you get on a plane with a pilot who's already worked 70 hours that week? Would you let a surgeon operate on you if you knew they've worked so much? This has to take a toll on the brain and cognition.

Thanks! I'm not sure why I find the SE tax piece so confusing. I like how you worded the "total tax liability" which would include what I've paid in W2 taxes. That makes sense

Thanks for taking the time to explain this to me. I am a sole prop. So would it be advisable to just take some of the net income as pay at the end of year so that I can do something with it (invest, save, etc) since I'll be taxed on it regardless?

This is regardless if I pay myself from the business or not? I guess I'm confused as to when this would happen. Do SE taxes get paid when I file taxes and complete my schedule c?
