98: Don't Let This Tax Strategy Bankrupt You with Leland Gross
Show Notes

Welcome to the Boosting Your Financial IQ podcast with your host, Steve Coughran. In today's episode, we have a thought-provoking discussion with Leland Gross, Founder of Peace Link Financial Planning, on the topic of "Don't Let This Tax Strategy Bankrupt You." We delve into the common misconception that minimizing taxable income, particularly through strategies like Section 179 depreciation, may seem appealing in the short term but can have detrimental consequences in the long run. Leland shares insights on how some businesses, misguided by the allure of immediate tax deductions, find themselves cash-strapped in future years. Moreover, we examine how reducing taxable income to nearly zero can impact a company's creditworthiness and ability to secure essential financing down the line.
