Dear Corey:
What inquiring mind really want to know was what was his reaction? Also did he try to semantically change the title of your occupation so it would be legally acceptable?

You can deduct hobby expenses up to the amount of your hobby income. Expenses that are more than the income you made from your hobby are nondeductible personal losses.

And that is real.

high volume? Inquiring minds want to know.

Last year I had a delightful encounter (not reviewed) with a woman who was preparing for her CPA exams.  If she has been successful I can see the possibility a developing a big client base with SP's.  What a business opportunity!!!

The IRS are the wrong people to try to screw.  forget trying to sabe a gew dollars on your taxes.
