"Mr Taxman is awesome. I had a question in regards to tax treatment of a property - looked up the ATO website and it was all gobbeldygook. Sent Mr Taxman the question and he answered in a split second, easy to understand language and made a lot of sense. Thanks MrTaxman"

"If I buy this book to help me do my tax can I claim it on my tax?"

"You sure can Jen - the ATO allows a tax deduction for reference material, such as this book, to help you manage your tax affairs. But if you elect to buy this book as bedtime storybook for the kids (let's face it ... it will definitely put them to sleep!) then it wouldn't be deductible in that instance. So not only do you save (or make) money with the tips ... it is a tax deduction that makes the book cheaper & even more attractive. Happy reading"

"Amazon seems to have big problems to get the book. They still think it is not published yet. I ordered in June and they still do not know when it will be published "

"Hi Martin Thanks for your message & sorry to hear about your hassles with Amazon. I have spoken to the publishers & they have advised that their US company have yet to order copies of the book – hence they have no pub date on Amazon. There is often a delay of 2-3 months between Australian publication and availability in the US. However they can see by their global inventory system that there are backorders in the US & going to prod the US to order so that we can fulfill the orders. Guess I have learnt something else about the book industry today! Sorry for the hassle - the wait will be worth it! "
