Uncle Sam Wants Your Money on Monday!

The big-hearted guy has given you a few more days to get it all together!

How’s that working for you? From the looks of things here in Big Bear, California, not very good. Sure, they say the economy is improving, unemployment is down, and more Americans are beginning to have some disposable income they can use to enjoy life.

From our vantage point of managing vacation rental cabins in this resort community, that has yet to happen here. We did not receive one inquiry from potential guests who were considering a weekend getaway to Big Bear this weekend. True, many of them may have been working to get those tax returns done by Monday. And, yes, spring is our slowest time on the mountain, where the majority of our guests come up in the winter for ski and snowboarding on the slopes, or in summer to enjoy boating and fishing on the lake. But to not receive one e-mail or phone call to take advantage of our discounted spring rates, well, we can’t help thinking it may take a bit longer for the recovery to reach Southern California.

Fortunately, the Big Bear Country Store managers don’t rely solely on rental income from the cabins to keep our households humming along during these traditional slow months.  One of the reasons the Big Bear Country Store was created some time ago was to create another stream of income, as well as to increase business expense deductions when tax-time rolled around every year. Today, there is no more scrambling around to find receipts, tabulating columns of expenses or wringing of hands wondering how to pay what’s due Uncle Sam. He actually sends us a nice refund check every year instead.

You, too, could experience this same tax relief next year by considering the creation of your own home-based business now while it’s on your mind. For just $39.95, and a few hours of work each week in your spare time, you could be writing off a long list of tax deductions in 2011, AND have some disposable income of your own to enjoy life. Perhaps a weekend in a nice Big Bear rental cabin! We provide a 50% discount on the nightly rate to those who join our Big Bear Country Store Power Team in the next 30 days! Call store manager Alan at 888-881-7372, and he will guide you through the simple steps on how to get started.
