1. Hobby is important too. Sometimes the sole purpose of a business would be to fund a hobby…No?

   1. Can’t really call it a business if it’s a hobby, purpose of business is to make money !

2. Yes this is what the IRS tax man says when people what to write use home offices as a deductions in their yearly taxes! If you are not making a certain amount of money it is a hobby! I have had a lot of hobbies! ^_^

   1. This is the same IRS man who likes to have his cake and eat it we’re talking about ? … we have a similar one in the UK he’s called HMRC, he would probably argue the same … in fact he almost always does, and seems to write rules that purely favour him, rigged game I think they call it, house-wins or house-wins … not very fair or business like of him though is it ?

      1. Yes i guess there always needs to be villains and opposing forces in the life drama to keep the play interesting.

         What does HMRC stand for? Her Majesty’s Royal ???? IRS is Internal Revenue Service or Tax Man!

      2. HMRC is Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs I think … they merged the tax man with the customs man quite a few years back …

         Perhaps, “needs” might be a little bit on the strong side, “is” I’d go for, but then I’m pedantic sometimes as you know …

      3. All i know is it take two to tango! ^_^ You pedantic person you!

      4. LOL … yes, you’re just as pedantic as I, so we’ll do fine together 😀

      5. Yes we can practice the tango together! 🙂
