Time to Pay Up Son!
Did you receive a green innocuous little green postcard from the city of L.A.? You might have mistaken it for a new years holiday card from your local dispensary. That it is not. It's your business tax renewal reminder. If you make money as an artist, consultant, photographer, street performer, chainsaw juggler or are some sort of independent person getting paid outside of a normal 9-5, guess what? If you be stacking up loot in the city of angeles, you gotsta hand over some of that chedda to Mr. V and the gang down on 1st & Main.
Here's some info you'll need to know to when filling out the form. The government classifies what you do into a series of numbers that lets economists make pretty pie charts for CNN's big board. It's called a professional activity code So what's your number?
