<prompt> Human: Im self employed and Im trying to get the most bang for my buck in terms of write offs. Im trying to decide if its worth taking the train to the city when I work, vs driving and parking.Lets say on average I go to the city 6 days each month:Train: 20 mile round trip driving to station x0.535 mileage write off 10.70Round trip ticket 10.90Parking at station 1.00 22.60 total train write offsdayDriving:60 mile round trip 32.10Parking 17.00Total driving write offday 49.10These add up over the course of the year. Lets say I go to the city 36 times over the year. Train write off over the year 22.60 x 36 813.60Driving write off over the year 49.10 x 36 1767.60Im looking at almost 1000 additional write off but also another 1440 miles on my car. Lets factor that I make about 55kyear.There are extra factors such as gas money out of my pocket, extra time it takes waiting for the train, traffic etc.Is this even worth while as a deduction?  <response>: I would try to minimize expenses instead of maximizing deductions.
