Comment: I've been called a tax cheat by Justin and I'm wondering where I went wrong? I paid my way through University, then I articled for 3 years, I volunteered in my community, started businesses, and paid all my taxes. 

I've had to use my personal savings to pay my employees, I have to put my house that I own with my wife up as loan collateral. For most equipment loans the banks will only finance 65% of the cost and that doesn't include the HST on the equipment. 

My spouse has a full time job and yes she does work in my corporation and I do income sprinkle to her and she does own 50% of the shares. So now I'll have to proof to CRA that she really does work more hours than a Federal bureaucrat to justify paying her a wage and paying her a dividend will have to be vetted by a $500 per hour tax lawyer, not to mention not compensating her for the having her 50% of the house at risk.

I wish I had a trust fund like Justin or a business handed to me or even better married a McCain.
