The Side Hustle Tax Trap Most Freelancers Miss
from Personal Finance with Fexingo: Budgeting, Saving, and Money Management for Everyday People · host Fexingo
Episode 35 of Personal Finance with Fexingo tackles a blind spot for the 64 million Americans with side income: self-employment tax. Lucas walks through the actual math — 15.3 percent on net earnings over $400 — and why quarterly estimated payments catch so many freelancers off guard. He and Luna discuss the difference between a hobby and a business, the home-office deduction's real rules, and a practical quarterly tax-reminder system. If you drive for a rideshare app, sell on Etsy, or consult on the side, this episode will save you from an April surprise. #SideHustle #SelfEmploymentTax #FreelancerFinance #QuarterlyTaxes #SelfEmploymentTaxRate #HobbyVsBusiness #HomeOfficeDeduction #TaxSavings #PersonalFinance #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #MoneyManagement #FreelanceTips #TaxSeason #EstimatedTaxes #Budgeting #SideIncome Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
