I agree wholeheartedly. That's why I only pay the gubmint about 9% annually. What I DON'T do is claim things that are questionable or hard to prove if I get audited.

Speaking of saving money, do you have Excel on your computer? If so, I can hook you up with a logbook that you can use for free, and it calculates your per diem for you automatically. Hit me up via PM if interested.
