<Just incorporate yourself/your business and then travel a lot, plenty of dinners, SEP IRA, invest in a business etc.>

I travel a lot and when it's business it gets deducted. When it's not business, it is not legal to deduct.

I go to dinner a lot and when it's business it gets deducted (the small legal pct they allow). When it's not business, it is not legal to deduct.

SEP IRAs max out at $24,000 per year per employee. If you contribute any more it is illegal.

I invest in businesses and pay taxes on them when due. It would be illegal to do otherwise.

<If you're upper income and paying more than 20% you need a new accountant.>

That may be true, but I also suspect that you have defrauded the country if trips and meals lowered your tax rate to 20%.

BTW, you write like someone who has never been in business.
