Q:
Hello,
I’d like to buy an ad on your page : http://www.taxguru.org/incometax/prepare.htm.
The ad would be for a website which offers tax attorney.
I don’t have a huge budget, but I’m sure there is a reasonable price we can arrange.
Please get back to me if you’re interested.
Thanks!
A:
I do not sell ad space on my websites.
If you feel you would be a fit for my page on other tax pros who share my philosophy of using tax laws creatively to help clients minimize their tax burdens, I may be willing to list you on my page of Other Tax Pros.
Kerry Kerstetter
Follow-up: She did respond with a website that I didn’t feel was appropriate to include on mine.

From Ohio CPA Dana Stahl:
Mr Guru – thought you’d find this interesting, but full of bulls**t!
Has the IRS lost its appetite for collecting payroll tax?

My Reply:
Dana:
That article sounds so similar to all of the other scare stories on the dreaded tax gap crisis, and about as accurate, using fabricated numbers as a justification for giving IRS more Draconian powers than they already have.

More errors for Rangel; hires new accountant – It may be sick, but there’s just something so satisfying about seeing that the head of the congressional tax writing committee can’t keep his own taxes straight.
