Summary: Hundreds of tax savings ideas, great for business owners.
Review: Are you going to be good little Marxists and pay all of what the IRS says you owe-the full percentage according to you tax bracket, or go on playing this cheater's game?When you participate in the Federal extortion racket, known commonly as our income tax, you are surrendering some of your most important protections under the Constitution. They don't just ask for your income totals, they ask all about your business and much about you personal life. If income taxation is so great (it's really horrible) then the title of this book is sort of a joke; the set up is "How do you pay zero taxes?" The punch is "Make no money." Because if the income tax is all about paying a fair share (of what?) why would you weasle out of it? The truth is that a National Retail Sales Tax would raise more than the Federal Government needs (it could never raise more that the Fed's WANT) and get the IRS out of our private lives for good.

Summary: This is a good book...BUT there are better ones available
Review: Being a CPA and attorney,I am a saavy financial person and read a lot of tax and financial books. How To Pay Zero Tax has been out for quite a while and is actually one of the first tax planning books that I have read. It is fairly comprehensive and actually better than most of the tax planning books out there. However,there are two main problems with it though for the average reader. First, it is literally much too much. It has over 600 pages and some of it isn't clear. Mr.Schnepper tries to be all things to all people, which doesn't really succeed. I guess a point in all directions is a circle. In fact, despite its length,some of the discussion on topics tends to be too brief. The second problem that has been noted by other reviewers is that this book hasn't be kept up to date. I guess Mr. Schnepper is "resting on his laurals." Let me be clear about this: it's not that I disliked this book. It is just that there are a number of other, more up to date and better written tax books that I would recommend instead such as Lower Your Taxes: BIG TIME by a Mr. Botkin.

Summary: Nation's leading tax expert says this book is invaluable
Review: I have testified on Capitol Hill before The National Commission on Restructuring the IRS and have appeared on Good Morning America with Charlie Gibson. My firm, IRSTAXES.COM is the nation's leading tax negotiation company. Jeff Schnepper does a fabulous job of showing the average taxpayer how to reduce their taxes in plain, clear language. The book is invaluable to every American. Jeff is also one of the only tax pros to recognize that having a home-based business is the number one way to reduce your taxes. Kudos for another great job.

Summary: A Book as Dense as Taxes Themselves
Review: Schnepper's book is not without its nuggets of ideas. However, to lead the reader to believe he or she will pay zero taxes is a bit misleading. This book is much too wordy and dense for the average reader. It's best to give it to your tax advisor and let them sort through the material. Schnepper devotes much of the book to case law, which is of more interest to tax attorneys than general consumers. Particularly frustrating is that the index must be from previous editions of the book. As I tried to reference various topics, the pages cited were not where the information I needed was. In short, this book is not particularly user-friendly and excessive attention was devoted to random topics.

Summary: My own little loophole manual
Review: Thank you, Jeffrey Scheppner, for giving us a level playing field when it comes to taxes!
Every tax law, loophole, and trap is spelled out in easy to understand English--even for non-rocket-scientists like myself.
I get his manual every year, and have not missed or misused a loophole yet!

Summary: Why look for a Tax break? When there is No income tax
Review: There is no law to make a person liable to pay income tax. No one has put forth the research and "know in your heart it's the truth" information like Irwin Schiff's - "The Federal Mafia" I personally have not paid income tax in over 8 years. I received one letter from the IRS to which I replied and informed them that I did not pay taxes for the years in question because I am under no obligation to do so (I included other statements with knowledge I gained from this amazing book.) I have never heard from them again & I never have had an IRS agaent come to my house. Don't let the IRS use their scare tatics to steal your hard-earned money, illegally seize your propery, and bank accounts. Ignornance of the average American is what they prey upon. Get the knowledge to See The Light. Mr Schiff's book will greatly change your opinions of our Government. (NOT THE BOOK THIS REVIEW IS WRITTEN UNDER)
I highly recommed all of Irwin Schiff's books. Extremely imformative / easy to follow / and above all undoubtely proves that there is No Income Tax. The IRS - "The greatest organized crime outfit of all time."

Summary: Great Reading
Review: This book was a disappointment because it did not show meenough in tax savings to justify the cost of the book. I gave it a 1star because a zero rating was not any more available for reviews than paying zero taxes is for 'regular' taxpayers. I feel the author is more of an IRS, tax attorney and financial planner advocate than a taxpayer advocate. The book has many time consuming, complicated and expensive techniques for reducing taxes. The author fails to communicate the likely prohibitive cost of availing oneself to these 'tax saving' methods.
