<prompt> Human: my wife has been talking to me about starting a company where we would charge all personal expenses through the company. This would not involve any employees, it would just be us two involved the company. She has some side business with Amway that she would associate with the company. She states that this will help with tax reductions. Is this legal? Can you guys point me in the direction where I can read more about this? Thank you.  <response>: we would charge all personal expenses through the company. Is this legal? No. If you have a business, you can deduct legitimate business expenses, but not personal expenses.
