I will agree with brianwawok. Amount of BS I hear from friends "optimizing" their taxes is staggering. Be very careful about any advice you receive from such entrepreneur. Most of them either breaking laws, or breaking IRS rules,

I am male engineer and I often get same treatment. I consider myself quite experienced, often more experienced than people getting preference. What I lack often is ability (and willingness nowaday) to prove myself in the eyes of others. Sol
