Disclaimer: Don't actually take our advice, we're not tax accountants!
But if you insist on being a tax rebel, here's some advice:
- Claim your grandma's chickens as business expenses
- Deduct your cat's dental care as a charitable donation
- Use your basement as a home office and claim it as a second property (just add some fluorescent lights and a 'Work In Progress' sign)
Don't say we didn't warn you!
