    AOBR is not paper folks. But yeah any company that pays 1099 is junk. Take 30% off that pay for taxes and another 10-15 for insurance.

    Do you have to pay more for taxes if you get 1099'd or would you pay the same as if you rec'd a regular paycheck? Or do you simply need the discipline to hold back a few bucks to pay taxes?

    You pay double the amount of social security taxes of 15% instead of 7.5% as an employee. Income tax is the same as employee.

    I set up my own corp and pay way less as a 1099 than I would with a regular paycheck. Talk to an accountant

    Don’t forget to hire yourself and run payroll. Is it still less tax?
