4.0 out of 5 stars Great for Long-Term Tax Planning, January 15, 2005

This review is from: How to Pay Zero Taxes, 2005 (Paperback)

Recommended for anyone who wants to implement long-term tax strategies to reduce or eliminate their tax liabilities. Long-term strategies require careful planning, and Schnepper's historical and legal approach will show you the advantages and pitfalls of various tax strategies.

Comprehensive guide to tax deductions and tax credits. As the subtitle says, this book covers "every tax break the IRS allows." Author Jeff Schnepper focuses exclusively on tax planning. This book is not to be used to help you prepare your tax return.

Schnepper organizes his material historically, which may be good or bad depending on your tastes. His discussion of a particular tax item proceeds through various tax laws, noting changes in the law or various tax court cases. The current information will always be towards the end of a particular section.
