018 - Audits, S-Corps, and Shenanigans: What Can You Actually Get Away With?

Travis, Can I Have This?

19:15

Can AI compress the years long research time of a PhD into seconds? Research scientist Max Jaderberg explores how “AI analogs” simulate real-world lab work with staggering speed and scale, unlocking new insights on protein folding and drug discovery. Drawing on his experience working on Isomorphic Labs' and Google DeepMind's AlphaFold 3 — an AI model for predicting the structure of molecules — Jaderberg explains how this new technology frees up researchers' time and resources to better understand the real, messy world and tackle the next frontiers of science, medicine and more.

You’ve probably heard someone say, “Just become an S-Corp, the IRS doesn’t audit those.” Today, we dig into whether that’s actually true (spoiler: mostly, yes), and what that means for your tax strategy.

Travis walks through real IRS data showing S-Corps are audited way less than sole proprietors, like 1 in 12,000 vs. 1 in 5,000 or fewer. But fewer audits ≠ free rein to deduct your Tesla or dog as “stress relief assets.”

We unpack:

Why S-Corps fly under the IRS radar
What the IRS considers legal vs. illegal (hint: tax avoidance = good, tax evasion = orange jumpsuit)
Whether having sloppy receipts is criminal (nope, but risky)
Form 8275: the IRS-sanctioned way to take a bold but honest tax position

Plus, Travis shares 5 key questions to ask before writing something off — including whether you’d feel good explaining that expense to an IRS agent with a straight face.

Whether you love the gray area or run from it, this one’s for you.

016 - What the One Big Beautiful Bill Could Mean for Doctors 20:11

8 weeks ago20:11

20:11

We’re talking tax law today, friends. Which means we’ve officially hit rock bottom… or found our calling. One of the two. At the end of May 2025, the House passed what they lovingly call the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.” (Yes, that’s the real name.) It’s not law yet — the Senate still has to weigh in — but this bill gives us a peek at what Congress is cooking up. And for doctors? There’s a lot to digest. In this episode, we break down the good, the bad, and the hairy parts of the bill — especially what could matter for dentists, physicians, and anyone living that W-2 or S-Corp life. The “Good” Stuff: QBI goes from 20% to 23% — and gets made permanent Lower tax brackets & higher standard deductions Bonus depreciation returns to 100% AMT threshold raised (bye-bye, surcharge surprise) The “Bad” News: SALT deduction still capped and kind of meh if you’re over $400k Mortgage interest deduction stays limited to $750k Itemized deductions for W-2 expenses? Still gone. The “Hairy” Details: Pass-through entity tax workaround (PTET) almost got the axe — and could still be on the chopping block A casual $4 trillion bump to the national deficit What might change when the Senate gets involved Got questions or fired-up feedback? Email me at info@gouluru. I’d love to hear what you're seeing and thinking. When the Senate finishes its homework, we’ll be back with another update. Until then, don’t forget: boring bills can save you big money.

012 - Can Your Practice Afford More Debt? A Guide to Smart Borrowing 25:12

14 weeks ago25:12

25:12

In this episode of Travis, Can I Have This? , we will tackle a common question for practice owners: “Can I afford to take on more debt?” You’ve got big dreams, fancy lasers, and that cone beam is whispering your name from across the showroom floor. But before you sign on the dotted line, let’s talk about debt . Not the scary kind—but the kind that sneaks up on your cash flow and makes you wonder where your money’s going. In this episode, we’re digging into one of the biggest money questions dental practice owners face: How much debt is too much? We break it down into two easy-to-understand numbers: Debt-to-Income Ratio (aka, how much of your monthly cash would go in your pocket if you didn’t have those loan payments) Debt-to-Revenue Ratio (aka, is your practice a money machine or a leveraged-to-the-eyeballs fixer-upper?) Plus: real-world examples, danger zones, and what happens when a cone beam becomes a financial anchor. Debt isn’t the villain here. But it does need a leash. If you’ve been eyeing new equipment or thinking about financing something big, this episode is your gut check. Let’s make sure your next move is a smart one.

In this episode of Travis, Can I Have This? , we explore whether renovating your dental practice is the right move. If you’re tired of outdated decor or believe a renovation will bring in more patients, this episode is for you. Travis breaks down key financial considerations before committing to a remodel. Key Takeaways: Know Your Why: Are you renovating for aesthetics or functionality? Patient perception may not change as much as you think. Financial Impact: Unless adding operatories, a renovation won't bring an immediate ROI. Debt from renovations will reduce your take-home pay. Two Approaches: A gradual approach allows for small, cash-paid upgrades, while a big bang approach requires financing but delivers a full transformation. Debt-to-Income Ratio Matters: Keep debt below 80% of revenue and ensure strong cash flow before committing. Best Use of Funds: Prioritize revenue growth over aesthetics to strengthen long-term financial health. Renovations can be beneficial but should be strategically timed to avoid financial strain.

It’s January, which means it’s officially… 1099 season! This is the time of year when dental practices both give and receive a lot of 1099s. But here’s the big question: do you really understand what’s happening behind the scenes? Even if you have an accountant handling the nuts and bolts, a lot of this information still flows through your hands as the business owner.
