The goal of tax planning is not just paying less in taxes; oddly enough, there are times when it is better to pay more in taxes for the present time. The goal is to legally minimize overall taxes to as little as possible and keep the hard-earned money. To reach the goal, we may defer or delay or try to entirely eliminate taxes if possible. To that end, we may suggest our clients spend the money now to take advantage of a law that will expire later or vice versa. We may suggest that changing the business structure and tax planning, corresponding with changes in the legal and fiscal environment, is ongoing and endless. Our suggestions and techniques may change to take advantage and stay compliant with the law.
