I've been thinking about getting a side hustle just don't know what. Well tax season is coming up and one day at the library I saw a dude preparing someones taxes for them and they made it look easy. I was like I could do that shyt . The question is is this a good side hustle to have? What are some possible obstacles I may face? Im pretty sure theres plenty of videos on youtube to show you how to do it?
Depends. Are you good at math and meticulous at your work?
Most income tax returns are filed by lazy people or morons, because they would only require a 1040 EZ form to be filled out.

If you know how to fill out a 1040 and have done it in the past, then you might be able to do this. Call up HR Block or those kinds of companies to see if you qualify to get a job as a tax preparer.

I wanna target regular people who work fast food/service jobs. People who are intimidated at doing their own taxes but don't wanna pay the high fees like at H&R.
I always do my own taxes so I don't know how much H&R charges. You might want to charge in the same ballpark to maximize your earnings.

what kinda people are they doing this for? small businesses n shyt?

i mean for anyone earning a hourly job, turbo tax is easy as fukk :heh: and then the state online was pretty easy too :ehh:
These are complete morons who can't read or do math. They see a form and directions and think they are filling out an application to be a NASA astronaut.
This can include McDonald's cashiers to NBA players.

The American school system should teach easy stuff like this but doesnt

I learned how in school in the 5th Grade and have been doing taxes for YEARS. Not just for myself, but for others as well.

Make a decent amount of change and have never had to deal with an audit.

Those forms only look intimidating. If you can read, you can do taxes.....1040, 1040A, 1040EZ.

Man, those cats charge like $100+, but it depends on how much your refund is estimated to be for the most part.

I charge like $75. Takes like 10-20 minutes...............:mjlol:

Breh...just don't do it...you hear what your saying? A class makes you qualified??? You get you can easily mess a person's life up for YEARS if you miss or mess something up and YOU can potentially go to jail as well?

It's not worth the cash you would make. If you want to make more money then you do now go become a CPA and cake...
Nah I think I'll risk people's lives now and make some money
