As a result, it is harder to flip a house right now than it has been in the past, but the possible reward is very high. If you are ready to invest time into the process, you can make a lot of money. However, you have to think logically about your purchase and try to keep your emotions out of it.

When the value-added tax or VAT was introduced worldwide, technology also made its way to it. So how does VAT technology affect a country’s tax system? Before we dig deeper into tax technology, let’s first go back to what VAT really is to have a better understanding about the wholeness of it.

He had a wonderful expression he said docs use from time to time: When you hear hoof beats, it’s probably horses. But you never know when it might be a zebra. With experience (and presumably some mental wiring) comes the ability to recognize patterns.
