10 Things Every Taxpayer Needs to Know About the Pension Law
The Pension Protection Act, signed into law on August 17, 2006, is designed to address the nation-wide problem of under-funded pension plans. The law penalizes noncompliant companies and encourages employee contributions, but many of the changes directly impact taxpayers of all ages, regardless of retirement status.
"Taxpayers will benefit from many of the act's provisions, some of which come in the form of tax breaks, but individuals cannot take full advantage of the tax breaks until the new laws are fully understood," said Michael Smith, Managing Authorized Taxpayer Representative at tax services firm FSI Tax Corp.

Tax Tips to Save You Time and Money
It's nearly that time again. April 15--the income tax deadline--is rapidly approaching.

Reyes Consulting Financial Advisors Introduce an Innovative New Tax Saving Strategy, the Family Advantage Program
(ContentDesk) October 1, 2005 -- Reyes Consulting is excited to offer its newest strategy in aiding clients with liquidating appreciated assets without realizing capital gain taxes.
This solution, implemented by a California Bar Board of Legal Specialization Certified Tax Law Specialist, we refer to as the "Family Advantage Program (FAP)."
The program uses a unique combination of tax strategies that benefit not only individuals and their families, but also their charity of choice. This program, unlike traditional tax and charitable planning strategies, brings substantial benefits to both the client and the charity.
All assets are at all times under the control and management of designated family members.
A charity of choice will not only benefit annually, but also upon the death of the client.
Additionally, the client's estate is not reduced.The program was introduced by Reyes Consulting Financial Consultant Brian S. Samuels, LUTCF.

Banner Ads Don't Work, But Non-Banners Do!
Make your banner look like text on a page. This is what I call a "non-banner" (close to "no-brainer"). If your banner looks like a banner, it gets ignored. Conventional banner ads only pull less than three percent on average. Why is that? It's because we have learned to ignore advertising.
Every day we are bombarded with sales pitches in newspapers, on the radio, on television, on highway billboards, and so on. It becomes background noise that we learn to tune out. Something that doesn...
