Fulltime in advertising, what did you deduct? I'm thinking of goddady, cargo, squarespace, viirb, linkedin, medical expenses, mta, vimeo, phone, maybe netflix and hbo?

So taxes? You can try to deduct those things but most accountants advise against it for a very simple reason — the IRS knows it’s bs. They also went on a hiring tear a couple of years ago swelling their ranks of auditors. This wasn’t to go after the 1% but to audit and fine those in the middle-class who try to game the system and are easily caught and fined due to a lack of financial resources to fight back. A few friends of mine were caught once. You can try though

Not such a good strategy. That’s how you get audited. You need to prove that all those items are specifically for work purposes and are not used for pleasure. And you can only deduct medical expenses over 7.5% of your gross income. I suppose you might get lucky because the IRS is so underfunded.

A good accountant that specializes in entertainment/creative industry can get you those deductions and more. I avg a 30k refund.

Everything but medical and mta

Although I got mta taken out of my paycheck so it wouldn’t be taxed

So what else can be deducted, folks?

Movies, concerts, magazines, museums. Anything that you can count as “culturally relevant” as “your job requires one to be aware of pop culture trends.” Also your tv subscriptions help you “stay up to date with broadcast commercial trends.” And your portfolio site
