> he IRS will never tell you a better way to do anything

The IRS does not have knowledge of everything you do. They can figure out shit that makes no goddamn sense on your taxes, but they won't bother to optimize stuff FOR you.

Why do people complain that the government doesn't have omnipotent knowledge of your finances? Why do they also complain that the government won't spend tax dollars doing shit for you?



The parent poster was counter-arguing that tax offices won't help you come up with a better structure everywhere in the world (original example was from Philippines where that happened).

I am pretty sure I wouldn't get that here in Serbia either.


The auditor who unexpectedly helped me is a BIR-accredited one but does not work directly for BIR. (BIR is a PH equivalent of IRS)
