No one prepared me to file my own taxes and track my income, expenses, and mileage and I made a lot of mistakes when I started out. This episode gets into the nitty gritty of what expenses you can keep track of as deductions from taxes. I share my knowledge, as simply as possible, to make this easy to understand for those of us who have limited-to-no experience in this department.
