A short excerpt from a YouTube video by Jayson Lowe arguing that successful business owners must account for taxes when making decisions about company and personal finances. Lowe emphasizes that business owners want success, to create jobs, and serve markets, and that taxes are an unavoidable structural factor that should influence financial choices.
What business owners want outside of the fact that they want to have a successful company. They want to create great employment opportunities, they want to serve the marketplace and whatever it is that they do. I haven't met a business owner yet who said, I really don't feel like I'm being taxed enough. Right. It just doesn't happen throughout your life, throughout your business cycle. You can't ignore the tax structure. It's there. Logically, you've got to make decisions about what you do, how you handle money that's flowing through your business and how you handle money that's flowing through your hands personally.
