Gary,

I'm talking about more creative ideas than trading profits tax
rates.. I'm not suggesting you change accountants, just
call Jim Crimmins and discuss options with him.

If you're not dealing with someone who specializes in
accounting for traders, who knows what you're missing..

I use different tax strategies, since I'm not American, but
the seminar I was at last weekend was very interesting.
There are ways to defer hundreds of thousands of
taxable income, and the cost is less than a thousand dollars..

Yes, it involves some paperwork.. But America, as well as
the UK, really has two tax levels.. One for the ignorant
or lazy, and another for those who make an effort. I'm
suggesting only legal permissible strategies, no amount
of tax saving is worth the loss of your freedom.
