70%? The fuck? What do you do for a living/do you have an accountant? That doesn’t make any damn sense. Like truly I do not understand how this is possible. I’ve been a freelancer and a small business owner and even in my worst years I didn’t come anywhere near 50%, let alone 70%
Truly this just sounds like you are way overpaying. Do you get a sizable tax refund? Do you live in a state that has some sort of crazy law you fall under?
