The 15 Secrets The Taxman Doesn’t Want You To Know: Plus 10 Bonus Tax Tips
As you read this book you will probably say to yourself, “these are not really secrets” or “I have read similar books”. However, we ask you the question, have you implemented what you know? The purpose of this book is to prompt a change in the way you are handling your financial situation; and if that happens, then we have accomplished what we set out to accomplish with this book. These are not big secrets, but we are willing to bet that if you implement even one of them you will save yourself considerably more tax than the amount you paid for this book. Does that not make it worth its price? Besides, they say that most people retain only 10% of what they read or hear the first time, so a repeat of information serves to reinforce it in your mind. In addition, no doubt many things have changed in your life since you read other books on this subject. So this is a reminder to review your financial situation and make the necessary changes. Even after reading and acting on the concepts in this book, we suggest that you read it at least once a year as a reminder that your life is changing and your financial plans need updating.
When I tell people that I am writing a book with the title, The 15 Secrets The Taxman Doesn’t Want You To Know!, after their initial interest I often get the comment, directly or implied, that “it is not right to tell people how to reduce their taxes, for everyone should pay their fair share”. The implication of course being that by giving this information on how to use the tax laws, somehow we are urging people not to carry their weight, and that what we are doing is at the least unfair, if not illegal. The response we give to that is, we are not encouraging the breaking of laws, in fact far from it. We are simply saying that the average taxpayer needs to be able to properly use the tax system to keep money that is legitimately theirs. Besides, we believe the average taxpayer can more effectively use the money they might save in reduced taxes, than what the government does with it. Then I ask the question “Do you like the way the government is spending YOUR money?” That usually ends the conversation quite quickly and has them asking where they can get a copy of this book.
When we first planned and began to write this book, we struggled with what name to put on the cover. For most of its life the Canadian government tax department was known as Revenue Canada, but a few years ago they changed their name to Canada Customs and Revenue Agency. However that did not last very long and most recently they have changed their name to Canada Revenue Agency. In the criminal world one changes their name or uses another, whenever they feel that people are getting wise to what they are doing, or they are seeking to cover up and escape past actions. Why do we get the feeling that there is little difference here? So throughout the book we are using the name by which the federal tax department is most commonly known, Revenue Canada.
