P' , - - 5 By Jacob Smith, CPA Year after year, tax advisers give three kinds of advice good bad, and mediocre fso what else is new' Wbwts new is that pvpu the very best tax advice may have a very sboit hfe, and often enough that advice is soon obsolete A long time ago when the combined FICA 'Social Security) tax amounted to a maximum of $90 a year, the conventional wudom was that if a wife dd some work for her husband in, for example, a small, incorporated busoess. she had lx'tter be sure that she got her own separate salaiy check and thus guarantee her own Social Security account, with greater benefits, when she retired Well the price of FICA skyrocketed over and over again In 1973, that same tax bad mounted to a mavimum of $1,2()3 60 and was still going up. If the wife m 1974 is still on the payroll tor perhaps a partner) for the maximum amount after so many yeais, it is just about impossible for her to break even. And thats not counting cost of related unemployment and compenthe ailer-ta- x sation insurance. This is so because she would be entitled to suhstanhal account without invest' r.g a benefits unde h, r cent m FICA. Also, if invested elsewhere, that cash would have doubled or tripled by now Do yourself a favor and find out if last year's ad ice is still in style this year y:7i x'pfZr -, - i A , a yS.
