Smart Assets is the podcast from Beyond the Ledger, a bookkeeping firm for travel agents, podcasters, and creatives who’d rather laugh than listen to another “get rich slow” lecture. Hosted by Amanda Collaso, it’s where money talk finally sounds human, no corporate buzzwords, no boring advice from guys named Gary, and definitely no “cut your lattes” energy. We dig into the real stuff that keeps your business running and your sanity mostly intact. Cash flow, taxes, messy expenses, and why everyone should stop pretending spreadsheets are a personality trait. It’s smart & funny.

FAM Trips | Let’s Aggressively Justify Vacation | Carry On Advice by Smart Assets Podcast

Welcome back to the Smart Ass(ets) Podcast and another episode of Carry On Advice, the series where we talk travel industry finances without sounding like a tax textbook. This week, Amanda is diving into one of the most common travel advisor questions of all time: “Can I write off my FAM trip… or am I aggressively justifying a vacation?” We’re breaking down: • What the IRS actually considers a legitimate business trip • The difference between business travel and “I answered one email poolside” • The 50% rule and why your extra vacation days matter • What travel agents should actually be tracking during FAM trips • Which expenses are deductible and which absolutely are not • How to document site inspections without making your bookkeeping a disaster • Why most travel advisors are actually too conservative with deductions If you’ve ever wondered whether your resort stay, airfare, meals, tours, or supplier events qualify as business expenses, this episode is for you. And yes, we also discuss blurry pool photos, emotional support beverages, and why the IRS definitely knows you’re having fun.

episode Augusta Rule | Old Money's Favorite Loophole cover

Augusta Rule | Old Money's Favorite Loophole

Smart Ass(ets) Podcast with Beyond the Ledger BookkeepingEpisode: The Augusta Rule This is one of those episodes that sounds fake, feels illegal, and somehow… is completely IRS approved. We’re breaking down the Augusta Rule, a tax strategy that lets you legally pay yourself rent from your business and not report it as personal income. Yes, really. Originally used by homeowners in Augusta, Georgia during the Masters, this rule has turned into one of the most underused strategies for business owners who actually want to keep more of their money. Here’s what we get into: * What the Augusta Rule actually is and where it came from * How renting your home for 14 days or less can create tax-free income * How business owners can use this for meetings, strategy days, content shoots, and more * Why your business can deduct the rent while you don’t claim it personally * The fine print that keeps this from turning into an IRS problem We also talk about what people get wrong, why you can’t just “Venmo yourself and call it rent,” and how to make sure you’re doing this in a way that actually holds up. It’s one of those strategies that makes you pause and go… wait, why is no one talking about this? If you’re making money in your business and not thinking about how to keep it, this episode will fix that real quick. Need help actually implementing strategies like this without screwing it up?

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
