Poll: Honestly, how "creative" are you on your taxes?

Please vote just once and choose the closest option if multiple would apply. IE: If you're a waiter and they only withhold on the $2 wage per hour and tips aren't withheld, choose no withholding. Fascinated to see the results of this...

Creative taxes are for when the stakes are low.

Recently I had an easy chance to save about $20000 by misreporting some income to have occurred during different fiscal year. I didn't take it.

I would be surprised if you get any answers that are both honest and "creative".

While I try to stay within the lines of US law, the IRS wins no sympathy by treating the US as a world-wide empire, claiming the right to tax the earnings of its serfs wherever on the planet they may be.
