This is by far the clearest explanation of this topic I have yet run across. Very well presented, having apples to apples examples in a clean spreadsheet format, as opposed to the random whiteboard scribblings that some others do that are really hard to follow.
If i want to open my own behavioral health/ mental healthy therapy practice and I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker in California can I do a partnership? I am told I cannot do an LLC.
This was a great explanation and the best resource I have found online that helped me understand the tax differences for Sole Prop / LLC and S Corp. Love how you simplified and broke it all down.
I rearly leave comments but you are great! This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for so long. I graduated from financial university in Europe but now I live in the US and I need to understand your microeconomy regulations work. Your video is just a great example of top notch teaching, it helped my to obtain more clear vision on how to run my own company and what type of entity to choose. I didn't even know about QBID. I'm going to comple your whole course. Thank you again!
☑ I don't leave a lot of reviews, but this video and another one in your list completely lifted the scales from my eyes. I was blind and now I see! You helped me make a decision about whether to go the S-Corp route and saved me from making a huge mistake. Thank you for bringing free content that is completely useful on its own. I have you bookmarked. I definitely want to take your course once I get my business up and running.
You did a great job, explaining how each entity pays their taxes and what is required but you didn’t explain to me any advantages of what each one offers so you just wasted like an hour of my time and now I’m super convinced on why it’s just good to pay so I wanna do your taxes. Thanks.
Would like to see more of these types of videos where small business owners can get educated on how to understand financials and use them to improve their business
Hi Navi. This video is great. I have tried to find a video with an expatiation like this one you just did and I have not found anything like this. You are great. Thank you so much!!!
I’m more than happy to discover this channel. I need to thank you for your time for this, particularly a fantastic watch!! I liked every little bit of it and I have subscribed you to look at new posts all the time.
Navi, this was an absolutely phenomenal explanation compared to everything else I’ve seen on YT. I appreciate the disclaimers regarding QBI and SE deductions, since many people leave these out and don’t mention it. Your clear ability to share knowledge makes me want to use your course. Thank you!
Your videos are excellent. You have a dedicated agenda without jibber jabber, clear video and audio, and speaks to people who are not CPAs. I've seen a few other videos and you mention about book royalties may not be taxed as self employment, as it is intellectual property and not a service. I would love to hear more about this topic. I have set up my business as an author as a SMLLC, but was considering being taxed as an S corp if I do exceed $40k.
Fantastic info and great pacing. This is hard stuff for most people to wrap their head around and you did a great job. The only thing that would make it marginally better and might not be worth the time is to put together some slides you can show occasionally during the presentation, but I understand if it isn't worth it.
I'm trying to understand business taxation and this video helped me to understand the differences. I'm a visual person; listening and reading don't help me. Thank you.
Great video. The social security tax is more nuanced then described. There is a max amount that is held per year. I think you want to max that out as many years as possible to get max social security benefits at the end of the day.
Thank you so much!! Your video was so helpful in gaining a clear understanding of the different business models, how the taxation flows, and the importance of each part. Very Informative, thank you
Found your post interesting to watch. I can't wait to see your new videos soon. Good Luck with the upcoming update. This UA-cam channel is very informative and effective.
Spot on, exactly what I was looking to learn. Thank you for your time in helping everyone! I am new to forming an LLC and learned a lot through your videos. As an S-Corp, when exactly can you withdraw the "distribution" amount (60k in your example). You pay taxes on 88k anyways - is there a reason to leaving that distribution amount there? At the end of your video, you suggest that over 60k can go to a Roth. What about Pre-tax retirement contributions? SEP IRA not an option for S-Corp?
This information was very informative. You broke it down so that the ordinary guy makes sense of it. The supporting websites tied it all together. I appreciate all the effort you put into your presentation.
Appreciate the information and I don't think it's boring at all, exactly what I want to know. You mentioned paying your own taxes at quarters, from what $ account is paying from, personal business account? Appreciate the information
Nice explanation, thank you. Just one clarifying question - the SP is eligible for 50% deduction of the SE tax, which I don't see reflected on your spreadsheet.
Agreed. Also, taxation is theft. They literally tax you 2x literally every direction you go. But then they say, no dollar can be taxed twice. It’s bologna
He actually explained it so smoothly in my opinion. Plus he giving good examples with easy to understand numbers and this is my first time learning about business taxes. Only part I don’t completely get is where the $88,000 came from when at first it was $100,000 then the QBID made it $80,000. I’m just confused where the other $8,000 came from.
It's not, since the governments number one mandate is keeping the nation safe. Also a nation has clearly defined borders that requires people to go through a process to enter. Since the USA doesn't have those things currently all federal taxes are invalid and shouldn't be paid.
Hi Navi, can you explain why @9:17 the S-corp contribution for medicare & social security would come from the employee earnings rather than the employer earnings?
The amount of social security and medicare taxes paid is derived from the amount of payroll issued. It doesn't have anything to do with the S Corporation's earnings.
Great Video! Thank you. If anyone knows in the S corp case there was 40k of Income and the rest Business Income 60k. The employer paid Medicare and Social security on 40k but didn't pay anything on the Business income of 60k for medicare or social security?
Thank you for this video. It's exactly what I was looking for. I found your spreadsheet and will definitely adapt it into mine. I appreciate it. I subbed for you.
I'm just seeing your video, which is very informative. Three of my co-worker are going into business together and from your expertise, which one of the formations would be best for us to form?
Fantastic breakdown, one question. If you have W2 income not related to the business, does the business income get added to the W2 income flow through the tax brackets or do they flow through the brackets separately?
This is by far the clearest explanation of this topic I have yet run across. Very well presented, having apples to apples examples in a clean spreadsheet format, as opposed to the random whiteboard scribblings that some others do that are really hard to follow.
Great video! It helps understand the basics I’m going to keep watching at the more complex topics!
If i want to open my own behavioral health/ mental healthy therapy practice and I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker in California can I do a partnership? I am told I cannot do an LLC.
Great Video ! Thanks !
This was a great explanation and the best resource I have found online that helped me understand the tax differences for Sole Prop / LLC and S Corp. Love how you simplified and broke it all down.
This was excellent and helped me decide to open an s corp vs LLC as an independent contractor
Very clear presentation.. You talk at a level that I'm able to BETTER understand
Super clear explanation. Setting the numbers up like that gave me a visual idea of how I should set up the business
I rearly leave comments but you are great!

@@ashburnconnecttv7860 I wish I had someone who would correct me since I’m trying to improve my spelling. Thank you for noticing!
Very well explained, I’m CPA in Puerto Rico and is very important get an advisory from a CPA.
Thanks! Very educative presentation. The visuals really made it clear. 👏
Outstanding!! I agree with Roger below. You provided the clearest explanation to date!!
Excellent job! You explained very clearly with a clean easy understanding spreadsheet. Really appreciate it.

Same as you. I’m started by own business and this has definitely saved me lots of money before starting.

I'VE WATCHED A LOT OF VIDEOS BUT THIS ONE WAS VERY UNDERSTANDABLE. THANKS
Would like to see more of these types of videos where small business owners can get educated on how to understand financials and use them to improve their business
This is exactly the kind of video I was looking for, super basic but thoroughly explained, thank you!

Best video online. Please keep up with the visuals of your explanations. It helps visual learning a ton.

Excellent video! Thanks for being so precise with your explanations. You are really taking the stress out of the entire process.
By far the best explanation on youtube. And the excel layout helps tremendously.
Glad it was helpful!
This was so helpful. Its my first video from you and i'm definitely gonna try to binge watch the rest of your videos. good job brother!
Excellent explanation. Big big thank you for clarifying the differences and giving a detailed example for us!
Thank you - this is exactly what I was looking for in the way of S-Corp tax savings explained and broken down!
Navi, you do an excellent job teaching the layman !
😊
new LLC and this is exactly what i need to know, i am going to the s corp after watching this video.
We are thinking about converting from a LLC to an S Corp. This was extremely helpful. Thanks!!

In another video I saw the guy said only SCorps get the QBID so I’m glad I found your video
Thank you for this information! You simplified a very confusing topic.
Thanks for the video. Nice Fastback in the background ;). I once had a 66' Coupe.
My favorite comment by far!!!!
Thank you for this clear concise breakdown. Really made it all make sense. Thanks!
I'm trying to understand business taxation and this video helped me to understand the differences. I'm a visual person; listening and reading don't help me. Thank you.

Taxes should not be this confusing…
Agreed but hope I was able to make it a little easier for you.

Do you have a link to that spreadsheet? Amazing video, I watched it at 1.5x speed and didn’t need to rewind it was that straight forward ❤
this was really helpful, Thank you.
THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY MUCH… 🙏🏽
I just subscribed 👌🏽👍🏽
@14:34 shouldn't the filing status be married filing jointly since you're adding the spouse's income? That would change everything below that.
Thank you. Very helpful content and well explained.
You're welcome! Thanks for the feedback.
You’re the man bro!!! Great information bro!!! Is it a bad idea to ask if I could get 12:00 min of your time ? If so how ?
Thankyou. This was a good video.
Thanks so much! 👍

Whether or not you take the money from q C corp do you have to pay the taxes on your personal return? The dividends?
Very informative. Thank u!
thank you for the video
You're welcome!
Great video, very informative and well explained/structured. Only problem is that I need a Canadian version of this channel!
If you asked the government to write instructions on how to ride a bicycle, it would end up being a 300-page manual.
I'm just seeing your video, which is very informative. Three of my co-worker are going into business together and from your expertise, which one of the formations would be best for us to form?
Great video, thank you
Everything you explained was very helpful! Thank you for sharing!
You're welcome. Glad it was helpful for you!
Hi Navi, can you please share the tax estimate Excel file template?
Fantastic breakdown, one question. If you have W2 income not related to the business, does the business income get added to the W2 income flow through the tax brackets or do they flow through the brackets separately?
