How to Pay Zero Taxes: 2000 Edition

Totally updated for 2000, this is a unique tax guide that focuses on how to pay less taxes, rather than focusing on how to fill out the forms and figure out what you owe. Unlike most of the brand-name tax guides, its primary perspective is tax saving not tax preparation.

Organized all around the IRS sanctioned deductions, shelters, credits, and exemptions, this book stands apart from the crowd because it's easy to read, easy to apply, and it zeroes in on what people really care about--paying less to the IRS!

Includes comprehensive coverage of more deductions than any tax book, including those related to: child care and elderly care, moving expenses, job hunting expenses, mortgages and points, investment expenses, and 401(k)s. The book is organized into six sections, including:
(1) exclusions,
(2) credits,
(3) general deductions,
(4) "below the line" deductions,
(5) traditional tax shelters, and
(6) super tax shelters.

Fully updated with all the latest tax changes as of October 1999, this annual guide delivers more tax-saving tips than any other guide. It outlines the easiest, most practical strategies consumers can use to lower their taxes this year, next year, and beyond-by focusing on hundreds of legal ways to preserve pre-tax income and profit. Schnepper's text is clear, concise, and not loaded with "accountant speak."
