My accountant told me to stop using my Starbucks receipts as a home office deduction, so I switched to claiming exactly 30% of my rent instead.
He literally said 'you're nickel-and-diming yourself into an audit' after I handed him 47 coffee receipts from last quarter, and now my Schedule C actually makes sense for the first time in 3 years - has anyone else had a CPA call them out on something dumb they were doing?

Nickel-and-diming yourself into an audit" is such a perfect line, I'm still laughing. What was the final straw that made you switch to the 30% rent claim?

Saw an article saying the IRS flags tiny deductions more than people realize.
