THESE ARE TAXING TIMES

Tax advice from the Horse’s Mouth?

Well, we’re pretty sure it’s advice from Paul Carrazzo’s mouth, but regardless of who is dispensing the good oil, you could save yourself a lot of loot by attending the Taxation Seminar at the Magic Millions Sales Complex on Monday 9 January from 4pm.

OK, tax is a subject none of us like to even think about at this time of year – it’s bad enough to be talking about it in June.

However, just as we’re never going to be able to avoid the other half of the equation, tax is a major issue for those who buy and sell.

At the 2012 seminar, you will find out:

• ·      What are the new horse loss rules?
• ·      Which horse deductions are you missing out on?
• ·      Where are the tax breaks in racing?
• ·      When should you consider stock write-downs?
• ·      Why should you turn your hobby into a business?
• ·      How do you minimise Capital Gains Tax?

Despite his youthful visage, Paul has been around since Kingston Town was a foal and is the tax feature writer for a number of industry publications.

Cost of the seminar is $132 (yes, that includes GST!) and light refreshments will be served.
