In this episode, I sit down with finance pro Neil Jesani to cut through the noise on tax write-offs for entrepreneurs and investors. We break down active vs. passive income, what actually unlocks depreciation (cost seg, real estate professional (REP), short-term rental rules), why 461(l) caps W-2 offsets, and how business owners can do far more. We hit estate tax vs. income tax, the step-up in basis myth/truth, smart uses of §179/bonus depreciation (including equipment plays), audits & record-keeping, and practical setup for new founders (LLC → S-Corp). If you’re making money—or about to—this will help you keep more of it, legally.
