Ever scrolled through social media and stumbled on a video claiming you can deduct your entire rent just by calling your bedroom a “home office”? It’s tempting to believe—but it’s also dangerously misleading.

As a business owner, you’re constantly looking for smart ways to save on taxes. But in today’s attention economy, social media rewards catchy content over correct content. That’s how nuanced tax rules get twisted into viral “hacks”, turning them into dangerous advice.

Take the home office deduction. You’ve probably seen influencers suggest that turning any room into a workspace instantly unlocks massive tax write-offs. But real tax pros like Enrolled Agents know there’s a strict legal definition: your space must be used exclusively and regularly for business—and that’s just one part of the rule.

The takeaway? If you’re serious about tax planning, skip the 60-second advice and connect with someone trained to understand the full picture. Because when it comes to your business finances, accuracy matters more than virality.
