Living without Health Insurance

More than half of working age adults who report serious problems paying medical bills are, or recently were uninsured; most of them borrow money from family or friends, or mortgage their homes to pay expenses.
Some eventually declare bankruptcy.

Start Your Tax Planning Now
Dec 29, 2006 - 10:58:00 AM
Although it is a good idea to have your tax preparer review your financial records throughout the year, it is advisable to have a tax projection prepared based on your operations to date so that there is enough time before the end of the year to do proper tax and/or investment planning or to adjust your estimated taxes to minimize any potential penalties.
Your books and records should reflect at least six months' operations to get a true picture of how the year is going. That can then be annualized to reflect a full years’ activity to use as a starting point for your tax projection and tax planning. TIP: Don’t overlook the dreaded Alternative Minimum Tax.
