About this episode
Welcome back to another insightful clip of Earn Your Leisure (EYL)! In this clip, we're diving deep into a strategic yet often overlooked tax-saving method: hiring your children. Our special guest, Ms. Business, and host Rashad Bilal walk you through how you can benefit from hiring your children, while also investing in their future. *Key Takeaways:* 1. *Hire Your Children for Tax Benefits:* In 2024, you can pay your child up to $14,600 without it being taxable. The money cannot be used for essentials like food and shelter, but can be used for extracurricular activities. 2. *Triple Tax Deduction Strategy:* *Business Tax Deduction:* Paying your child is a deductible business expense. *Non-Taxable Income for Child:* The income is non-taxable for your child as it's under the standard deduction limit. *Roth IRA Contributions:* Investing this money into a Roth IRA leverages compound interest, providing a tax-free growth and withdrawal in the future. 3. *Eligible Ages and Roles:* While there's no strict age limit, roles must be reasonable and age-appropriate. Ms. Business recommends hiring children typically between ages 7 to 17. Younger children can be employed in tasks like modeling or handling easy tech-related jobs. 4. *Legal and Practical Considerations:* This method should be implemented through an LLC to avoid payroll complications. Children must perform actual and reasonable tasks for the business. Hiring your children is more than just a tax deduction; it's a holistic approach to saving for their future while giving them invaluable work experience. Join Ms. Business and Rashad Bilal as they break down these strategies and much more! *Timestamps:* 00:00 - Introduction: Importance of Hiring Your Children 00:40 - Limits and Conditions on Child Payment 01:14 - Triple Tax Deduction Explained 01:53 - Practical Examples and Benefits 02:27 - Age Requirements and Eligible Tasks 03:01 - Legal Structures and Practical Implementation Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more content on maximizing your financial strategies! *Hashtags:* #EYL #TaxBenefits #HireYourChildren #TaxDeduction #FinancialEducation #RothIRA #TaxFreeIncome #TaxStrategy #BusinessTips --- Stay tuned and empower your financial knowledge with Earn Your Leisure!
