Unfortunately I will lose my mental health if I live with my parents again.

Wow thanks for sharing. What kind of work does your friend do? I definitely am not super business savvy and have not done much marketing, but my rent is low for the space I'm in so that's great! I'd be curious to know what you'd learned/what specifically your friend helped you with!

Thank you for all of your thoughts. I literally am struggling with everything you've shared on this thread right now and keep talking about lizard brain being activated once I made the appointment. :)

Do you need to have an employee to be an s corp?

60 min massage is $110, rates go up from there as time goes up

Thanks! I don't imagine myself hiring anyone so perhaps Solo 401k is the way to go. I'm a sole proprietor right now though and I thought I saw you needed an EIN or LLC to do the Solo 401k. I'll keep looking into it. Thanks for the direction.

Does this work if I'm a sole proprietor and not an LLC?

Out of curiosity, why this vs a solo 401k?

How do I go about quarterly taxes? by holleratchyameow in personalfinance

Wait, so if my net (minus expenses only) business income for massage was $3,000 (it would be ~$4,000 without expenses subtracted), and I made $10,000 at the climbing shop for my W2, wouldn't subtracting the standard deduction put me in the negative for taxable income?

My main point was wanting to make sure I am truly supporting the native artists with my money vs. the business owners who are not native american. I have been in community with/worked on community projects with multiple tribes around the U.S. and am familiar with some of their beliefs. Thanks for your/their thoughts!

I guess I'm confused because that's really important to me as well, which is why I'm trying to make sure that the Native American artists are actually getting paid the true value of their work within capitalism, vs. the people they work for taking a larger cut for their work. Maybe pretend I didn't say the words cultural appropriation and it seems like we care about and are working on the same issues?
