Pubs (Not the Good Kind)
I dislike the IRS. That’s no secret, and most of my clients share the same distaste. But in the spirit of Vito Corleone, I advise my clients to hold the IRS close (keep your friends close and your enemies closer). The best way: Read their publications. The enemy lays out their plans, their ideas, their strategy . . . and the things are well-written and easy to understand, unlike the Internal Revenue Code, the regulations, and tax court opinions. If you want to check out a sample that is relevant to many people, check out their publication on educational savings.
