Alternative minimum tax

I am of the opinion that in my situation (a lot of write offs), that there is a fairly size able gap of income above the AMT income level, between which it is not in my best interest to exceed amt income level until I am we'll above that income level (maybe 50k above).

Has anyone actually done the math?

You probably know this already, but if you haven't increased your 401k contributions you should consider it. Maxing out your 401k contributions seems to be one of the few ways to get you AGI down.

I'm maxed there.

While this topic may not apply to everyone on here, at some point it probably will. The first step to having a valid investment strategy is to have a valid tax strategy.

Again, if anyone has real world experience with managing this aspect of the tax strategy, I think at a minimum, it's valid to raise awareness for the future.

I'm all ears. And I just realized that I overused valid.

How exactly is our deal with the Trainer facility set up? Could this change that? At least it might squash the Oil speculation.

I know you're joking, but having been furloughed, I do think guys who had ample opportunities to return and didn't should have sacrificed a bit more than just longevity. I know the arguments on both sides, but there will be guys who have actually been on property for just a few months, out for over 12 years (chose to stay out for whatever reason), that will be coming back senior to guys who have been on property working (making a profit for Delta) for 5+ years. I know it would be a can of worms to come up with a future methodology, but I feel for the very bottom of our list, when we all have stagnated for so long. Lets all hope we never have to deal with another decade+ of furloughs and stagnation for future generations of pilots and this is a start of some good happenings at the big D. I appreciate all the guys in this situation and certainly understand a bit of whining from the bottom.
