I would have had more respect for Danielle Ross if she'd just admitted it and took her punishment.

How many other guardians are cheating IRS and the taxpayers?
ReplyDeleteHey Thelma good question. ANSWER: Many are cheating IRS but is anyone really checking?

Much is off the inventory, it's so easy to do inventory is on the HONOR SYSTEM - hey, don't fall over laughing.
In Illinois, Sharon Mehrtens the big Guradian in her area southern IL has businesses realted to her gig as a Public Guardian including a THRIFT SHOP business, antiques etc. How handy is that?
Hmmmmmm now where does the stock come from?
