The Tyee's "Freelance Finance" (Part 1 of 3)

Submitted by Colleen Kimmett, 17 Jan 2012

 

On October 11, 2011, The Tyee presented a two-hour workshop in Vancouver with certified accountant Marianna Scott. Before a crowd of freelance writers, artists, journalists, and photographers, Scott discussed the fundamentals of taxation, including which expenses are deductible, what kind of records to keep, how to stay organized throughout the year and tips for eliminating stress and saving money come tax time. This footage is the first of three parts.

You can watch the second part of the video here, and the third and final clip here.
