I (as landlord) have never done a lease adding my personal income taxes to rent paid by tenant. Nor have I ever done one adding my self-employment (FICA) taxes to the rent. I simply increase the rent by enough to (hopefully) pay for maintenance, and other costs, like my TAXES. Nor did I ever sign a lease as tenant that included the personal income taxes or payroll taxes of the landlord. Your statement is false.

No, you are still just a liar. Only a fool of a landlord would pay themselves wages and subject themselves to a self-employment tax of 15.3% of their gross income. Of course, if that describes you, then, as one Freeper to another, I suggest you urgently consult a competent accountant as soon as possible before you flush anymore of your earnings down the toilet.

It's the crazy income tax scheme you love to defend that requires that I take a "substantial" portion in wages. Perhaps you are ignorant of my position - among other things.
