I probably get more questions related to income and deductions for blogging than any other job or hobby. Maybe that’s because I am a blogger – but I suspect that it has more to do with the fact that there are a lot of questions about how to treat new media when it comes to classifications of workers, income and deductions.
Have no fear. I’ve written quite a bit on this subject and rather than rehash the old info, I thought I’d put together a handy list of articles for you to reference.

I have a question about Life Insurance and tax deductions. I work as an insurance agent for Bankers Life. We are getting 10.7 % on our whole Life policies right now and many people are asking if they can dump some of there savings into a Life Policy. I’m aware that if you over fund a Life Policy it becomes a Modified Endowment Contract (MEC). My question is what are the tax concequences of a MEC?
Thank you,
Joey
