Question: Going to start an eBiz in California…What do I need?

Going to start an eBiz business in California and need to know what licenses I need in order to: #1 officially do business in California and #2 buy from wholesalers (i.e. provide tax id#). I will not have a store front, online only.

I have been reading around and have noticed two different licenses that may or may not work: 1) Business License and 2) Resellers Permit. Which one?

I am going to start out small and eventually grow my business.

Thanks for your help.

Question: Obama’s plan for America?

Okay, I have been reading Barack Obama’s “Blueprint for Change.” I read the whole sixty-four page document and was stunned, it was full of stuff like hope and change in America, the document was full of more government programs giving millions and billions of dollars for programs. He plans to, give free college educations to students, make small businesses make arrangements for child care, give tax credits to low income families, and give free healthcare to all americans and illegal immegrants, and has loads of other programs costing billions maybe trillions of dollars. Without saying how we will pay for them!

He plans on increasing the minimum wage, raising the gasoline tax driving up the prices, and raise taxes on the upperclass which will drive jobs over seas.

How can Obama supporters say that we wont go bankrupt?

Answer: Only those of us who have worked hard, and have done well in the money dept., saved and planned ahead will suffer. The poor and lazy will be living the high life while we work three quarters fo the year to support them. I, for one, am really tired of this mess and he will only make it worse. Life isn't always fair, if I am smarter and richer, and have worked harder than the next guy, I don't think I should be punished for it....I am tired of saying I am sorry for doing well.

Obama has made it clear that he will increase taxes for the "rich"....while of course, not defining what rich is.

Question: I have a small business, just have question on filing a extension?

Taxes are due 3/11 , I can’t make this deadline I need more time, so if I mail out the extension form today what will happen? this is my first year in business, will I get late penalty?

Answer: Opps - 3/11/09? -- you're Late! --its' April 9th, 2009. You may be ok - penalty's are based on amount owed - since you haven't filed yet, you won't know if you owe any taxes. If your business doesn't make a profit for the first five years - you will not be charged taxes! on income less deductions (just be sure you have more deductions then business income) Be sure to hire the best Business Tax person you can find, may I say afford.

Elizabeth Warren: Death of the Middle Class

The nationwide small business consultant company, Grow Small Business, held its first Small Business workshop last month at the Southfield Westin Hotel.

The workshop’s theme, Small Business “Bailout,” attracted attendees from all parts of the tri-county region.  The audience of small business owners and entrepreneurs was delighted and encouraged to learn that there are legal and financial resources available to them.  

The “Bailout” workshop planners, Dennis Nazelli and Emily Holt, arranged for experts in the fields of legal and financial affairs.  The Program Manager for Women’s Business Center, Kathi Boyle, represented the Center for Empowerment & Economic Development (CEED).  Director Earl Carruthers represented his company, Graceful Financial Solutions; and, Business Loan Officer, Derek Thornton, spoke on behalf of CharterOne Bank, the largest lender of business loans in the state of Michigan.

Emily Holt, a successful owner of her own insurance agency for 20 years, used all of her time slot to explain the many benefits of the Pre-Paid Legal Services program that protects entire families from law suits, IRS issues, Identity Theft restoration services, writing a will, contract review, foreclosures, speeding tickets, landlord/tenant issues, owning a small business, and many more issues that would normally cost a fortune if handled by an attorney from the “yellow pages.”  Ms. Holt received a resounding applause when she announced that the Pre-Paid Legal membership program only cost $1.17 a day.

The second presentation of legal resources was given by Dennis Nazelli and it centered on the explanation of the business legal plans offered by GoSmallBiz.com.  Mr. Nazelli illuminated the unique and reasonably-priced coverage of the GoSmallBiz.com plan.  It covers legal and business consultation, legal and business correspondence, legal forms, debt collection, IRS tax issues representation, contract and document review, trial defense representation, internet marketing, construction of your business website to name just the plan’s major elements.

The incredulous audience was amazed to learn that their cost for these two resources combined for under $2.00 a day.  Nazelli reminded the audience that together these two legal plans will protect you, your family and your business.
