How much of your earnings do you set aside for taxes? Percentage-wise of course.

Based on my regular staff paychecks, I would assume it's about 30%, but my dad said I should hold about 50%-- which seems a bit excessive to me.

Anyone have experience with this?

my accountant told me that I should hold at least 40% because if you don't incorporate yourself and make a certain amount, you have to pay these crazy taxes on top of regular taxes...

I would consult an accountant asap...

Thanks-- I am waiting on word back from my accountant. I think I will most likely incorporate myself for tax purposes. I am just trying to do some math at this point.
