This is why I got an accountant who set up the aspects of my side-hustle business I'm too stupid^H^H^H^H^H^H lazy^H^H^H^H busy to sort out. Yes I could have done this all myself but could I have done it myself the correct way from the outset? Not a chance. I would have screwed up some detail.

Its silly, lots of people do their own taxes but forget what they normally charge per hour and how slow they do the taxes makes it not worth it. No one would hire them to do taxes at those rates.
this of course only works if you spend the time in exchange for billable hours. if you do it during down time or in your free time, you of course save money.

until you screw up :P

That amused me so much I forget to reply. There is no such thing as doing work in your free time!
