A quarterback came to me last spring.
I’ll call him Matt.
Matt had just signed his first NIL deal. $900,000.
He was 18 years old. Enrolled early. Hadn’t played a single college snap yet.
His phone was blowing up. His family was excited. His teammates were asking questions.
Nobody was talking about taxes.
When we finally sat down, I asked him one question.
“Matt, what did you set aside for the IRS?”
He got quiet.
“I didn’t think I had to do anything until April.”
April came.
His tax bill was deep into six figures.
He had set aside nothing.
The IRS classifies NIL income as self-employment income. You are not an employee. You are a business. And the IRS expects quarterly payments throughout the year. Not one lump sum in April.
Here is what we built together:
→ A cash, tax and savings plan with accurate projections so we knew exactly what he would owe from day one
→ An LLC with S-Corp status so he could be paid as an employee of his own company
→ A real business with tracked expenses that reduced his taxable income
→ A quarterly tax payment schedule based on our projections, eliminating penalties and interest
$900,000 is life-changing money.
Only if you keep it.
I work exclusively with athletes navigating exactly this. If that is you, or someone you know, my DMs are open.
♻️ Repost this. There is a NIL athlete somewhere who needs to read it today. Trust me.
Pls help a local Hermosa Beach mom having 3rd brain surgery for glioblastoma.
We are having a fundraiser @LAaleworks Hermosa on 6/16

⏳We're halfway through the year. The question isn't whether you'll owe taxes, it's whether you're still in a position to influence the outcome.
One of the biggest misconceptions we see among successful individuals & business owners is that tax planning happens during tax season
Tax Season is over. Planning Season is not
Now is a great time to clean up books, review cash flow, get ahead of 2026 tax planning
Clean books means fewer surprises later

@markcecchini#Truth
That’s why @Realm_Tax focuses on tax planning with clients that understand, appreciate and are willing to pay for proactive advice.
We also have a lot of clients at these companies or others in SoCal since we are based in Hermosa Beach CA
@BarbellFi All the accountants chiming in on gifting rules, AFR (Applicable Federal Rates) for loans…
Days before the 3/15 Business filing deadline 😆 🤓
@NotGoKGreen Great job realizing this and fixing it Kimi.
That’s what we help @Realm_Tax clients with so they can concentrate on high ROI work
I’m sure you know some startups we worked with in NYC!
Happy to help any that you know
@SMB_Attorney@Realm_Tax in SoCal 🏄 focuses on business owners in CA (also US) with Tax Planning, Prep and Bookkeeping
I bought a CPA firm 2 yrs ago so have the SMB experience too after starting / growing 2 companies
I am constantly being asked for CPA recommendations.
If you're a CPA who serves entrepreneurs and SMBs, comment below with a few details about your firm, and I'll send this post to anyone who asks moving forward.
It really is crazy out there
We have a new client who owns an S Corp
Hasn’t run a salary payment in his second year of running his solo business
It’s QBID eligible (non SSTB) and his income is over the threshold
We tell him to reach out to his cpa to get payroll setup, get to a reasonable wage, add a solo, and make a ptet payment (since he is in a state he can still elect into)
CPA’s only response is that he shouldn’t do any of that because it’ll add $20k more of SE tax
He Said since he’s still so new he doesn’t need wages… (no QBID without wages)
Wild
With all the planning, he will end over up $25k ahead tax wise and most importantly now be compliant
What is up with allowing $0 salaries in S Corps?
At least 20% of the business owners coming to work with us have $0 salaries
