💸 TAXES = You make money, you have to pay them. We all do. Are we excited about it? Not particularly. Does it keep us up at night? No. The topic doesn’t have to keep you up either.
….Small business Law and Risk Management are somewhere up there in the “keeping you up at night” realm too, which is why they are also listed on this page.
We are not accountants. We are also not attorneys. If you have a specific tax or legal question, we’re happy to lend an ear and try our best to connect you with someone who can help, but we do not give legal advice in any way. RESOURCES@THEHUBNORTH.COM
While we do our best to ensure the validity and integrity of these resources, businesses, organizations and individuals, we are in no way affiliated with any of them and are providing resources on a strictly informational and educational basis.
