Dr. Friday 0:29 Good day, I’m Dr. Friday and the doctor is in the house and we are live here on Saturday, this wonderfully sunny, I guess if this properly term. It’s a really nice Saturday outside. I’ve been working all day. But I did get a chance to go out earlier. And it’s very nice. So hopefully you guys are enjoying your Saturday. And if you have any tax questions, we all know we’re coming up on another deadline here.
Dr. Friday 0:50 Now, most of us already hit the I guess you would say the one deadline of August 2. Now the next one is going to be the true extension deadline date, which is October 15 for individuals. All operating businesses are going to be on September 15. So those are coming up.

And that is pretty much when you hit over 400 and some up 460, 000s when you’re maximizing that for a married couple. So that will be something you need to be looking at making sure you understand. And if you have questions about that, or maybe you’re just getting ready to start thinking about changes that might be happening changing of jobs.

Dr. Friday 2:44 And you can reach us here, the radio phone number is 615-737-9986. And we can take your calls here live. Again, if you’re dealing with any of those. I took a meeting earlier this week. With someone that was–another thing– when you’re selling real estate a lot of t
