Good morning all, thanks for offering this amazing resource. 
I am Scott, a recently retired Firefighter here in the SF Bay Area looking to invest as I continue to work a W2 job and am in the latter steps of starting a small business, mobile bartending services here in Ca. 

I am weighing differences of REI vs Business Ownership and really trying to weigh the pros and cons to both.

Tax advantages are important to us as we a higher level W2 earners and the taxes crush us annually. 

We have a child at University and are looking at options of "employable" tax advantages with him as well, i.e. paying him as an employee of the business and using that write off rather than just paying his rent from the account every month with no advantage. 

Thanks again for having me, Im looking forward to learning more about the community and the opportunities within
