With credit cards, don’t let the company raise the interest and fees if the person runs into trouble. To some extent, the company has made a “bet.” Hold them to it.
I’m not crazy about excluding tips from taxed income. Some tipped employees make $70,000 or $80,000 or more a year. And they should pay income tax just like everyone else. But I’m not planning on spending a lot of energy fighting “no taxes on tips” either.
