How to Make Use of the Zero-Percent Tax Bracket – Episode 164

If you look at the tax tables, you’ll see that there are seven different tax brackets listed: 10%, 12%, 22%, and on up to the highest bracket at 37%.  But did you know that there’s also a certain amount of money you can earn that’s not taxed at all?
