He claimed he had to write a 2 million dollar check to the IRS in April.

That’s more real than most people on this board, if true.
My house is behind McGuires in Destin by Shoreline church. Apparently a tree went down on Azalea rd that killed power to the neighborhood.

Early reports from neighbors say it’s just trees and leaves all over but other than that pretty good.

Went to central Florida to avoid riding this out with an 18month old and no generator.
Needs to keep going east to Mexico beach please.
Take the sales proceeds and subtract out closing costs and the value at the time of inheritance, assuming the original owner was deceased before it transferred to your parents.

If the original owner gave your parents the property before they passed away, then your parents basis is what the original owner paid for the land. No adjustments for inflation.

There’s no threshold to trigger if it’s taxed or not, as it was never anyone’s primary residence.

Miso braised short ribs. Fantastic

Soften some unsalted butter and mix it then put on top of steak. Simple and fantastic.
The older I get the more I’m starting to do this. Even half an hour screwing around before I go to bed is enough to quiet the voices

The “write offs” you listed apply to any business not just farming.

One expense you are missing in that list is…..

Interest expense.


Buying something for the sole purpose of reducing taxes doesn’t always work out the way people think it does. There are a lot of variables here including things unrelated to the farm or business so buying this for the sake of write offs may not give you the reduction in taxes you are looking for.

What you don’t want to do is find out that you’ve bought yourself a full or part time job to save you 5k or less a year in taxes.

Before you pull the trigger on this or any purchase, go talk to a cpa and get an explanation on just how it could affect your taxes for the year the land would be purchased, the next years including operating the farm or business, and then what happens when you sell.

I’d also check to make sure your withholding is correct. If you are just now finding out that you are getting shellacked then you’ve likely waited until now to file your 2025 taxes and are scrambling to find something to keep it from happening again in 2026.

So you want to purchase land for a “side hustle” for “tax write offs” but the interest is too high?

Does factorio have lizard dogs?
I’m working out the kinks of my oil refineries now. For some reason I can’t get my fuel to produce what the math says it should be.

Haven’t played factorio but I have seen factorio players say they really like the 3d layer that satisfactory has.

I’m forcing myself to build my factories vertically now. I think I’ve only explored less than half of the map.


Anyone else play Satisfactory?

I picked it up the demo 8 weeks ago. After blinking the 8 hours was up and I ordered the game.

Im finding it a different way to unwind after I get home from work and put my kid down to bed.

Made it to phase 3 and decided to build a megafactory and stick the space elevator on top. 32x32 is the first floor with 28x28 floors for various production stages.

Using ChatGPT to help project manage and plan this shite out had been an interesting way to play.

Try swappa.com.

Bought my ps5 and switch from there years ago. No issues and both still running great.
Why did you abbreviate 2 people you are discussing but not the third?
Seems like strength of record with more steps.
Yeah. You are the sucker. Get free shite.

AJs will likely have it on.

It’s all lsu friendly down here. Even when out numbered, everyone is still cordial.

You always have your assholes though.
