“You, as a wage earner have to pay your taxes every year on your income for that year. So if you have a one-time windfall that makes you a lot money you could end up in the top tax bracket. But if you're a corporation you are allowed to reach forward with deferrals for years. Over a 45 to 50 year period, you can balance out the winning years and the losing years in such a way that you pay very little tax, especially considering the time-value of the money.”

Readers feel so close to the characters that, for those magical moments, they become those characters.”
“You are not here to fritter away your precious hours when you have the ability to accomplish so much by making a slight change in your routine.”
