I don’t know how pple get it calculated. To me, 10% is reachable. Here is how.
everyone can BUY DOWN the tax rate if one would like to spend tax deductible dollars as much as possible, i.e. Sch A, C, D, E, etc. 然而, 省稅不省錢。 Are you willing to do so, then? Have you ever heard of this ad - buy more, save more! How the heck could pple save?! I wonder how much 10% tax pay has left you?
You may ask what my point is. 省稅不是目的。 不是嗎? 還有好多花銷是不能抵稅的呀。 學會賺錢及花錢(投資),進而積累資本,達到“十年一千萬”,才是硬道理啊! :-)
FYI,
- SS 6.2%, Medicare 1.45%;
- Effective tax rate for both Fed&CA = (form 1040 line 60 + form 540 line 31+ SS+ Medicare) / form 1040 line 22.
