Taxes?

I can't be the only one who wants to pay taxes. Ok, maybe not "want" but feel it is best. For one, we make decent money n it's only right to contribute to government programs that I hope will be around long enough for my children to see. I may not like how many things are ran but I still would like to do the legal thing. My job is legal. I entertain. There's nothing illegal about having sex with men you met at work. I'm paid for my time and I choose to have sex ...two different things Anyways, to get a nice mortgage or car loan, you need proof of income. That means TAXES. So I have many reasons for this decision and I certainly am not judging anyone who doesn't pay. I just really want proof of income AND to feel like I'm being as legal as possible.

Some one here must be an accountant or have some knowledge. I'm a great self teacher but would love someone to consult with on the trickier parts n gray areas.


Opinions? Advice? Open minded accountants I'm Syracuse?
Since it's illegal income, and you feel the way you do, and for a handful of other reasons besides - a legitimate charity makes the most sense. Maybe not the answer you were looking for though.

You're on the right path. Put entertainer, declare what you want/need.

Check the main section too. This has been discussed before

Thanks, you're right I'm sure. Just figured maybe other providers knew a good accountant who is educated in this area. I know the IRS supposedly does not care and can not turn it in to another department legally even if I put "escort" (which I would not do) but fact is, many sex workers do pay taxes for a variety of reasons.

I donate to charity and help others regardless of being in this field. I just am able to do more now. People would be surprised how good it makes YOU feel to help others. I prefer more personal acts of kindness than a big charity or organization though.

The escorts that I know who pay taxes have a cover business that they run. For example selling crafts, freelance makeup artist, freelance personal assistant/stylist...

Get a dba-"doing business as" Call yourself an entertainer, cleaner, whatever you want.
Get a tax id number. Claim something every year.

Im just getting started with doing it 'legal' as well. So I appreciate advice. This is what I have done so far and I have an ebay business as well as sales from my website (pics/videos) I will claim.

I agree dont mix hobby and real life.

Interesting, i would say the only income you could consider claiming is if you make a habit of getting paid by check, visa, paypal, etc. I think claiming large amounts of money with no paper trail would be highly suspicious to an irs audit process. To reduce suspicion, one would have to manage a bonafide service business, such as massage therapy, counseling, etc then you are mafia.. Better off not claiming anything.
